The Scarlet Plague
About the eBook
☣️ He remembers the world before it burned.
In The Scarlet Plague, Jack London delivers a chilling and visionary tale of a world undone by disease and rebuilt from its ashes — a story that feels more prophetic now than ever.
Sixty years after a deadly plague has wiped out most of humanity, an old man named James Howard Smith, once a university professor, wanders the desolate California coast with his primitive grandsons. As he recounts the fall of civilization — the panic, the violence, the helplessness — his memories become a haunting echo of what mankind once was… and what it lost.
Written long before modern dystopias, The Scarlet Plague stands as one of the earliest post-apocalyptic novels in history — a stark warning about human hubris, fragility, and the illusion of progress.
London's vision of a shattered world is both terrifying and deeply human, blending survival, reflection, and the faint hope of renewal.
