Jack London stood on a platform and spoke with passion to the crowd that was not there.

Jack London's hand was curved up in a gesture, perhaps trying to re-grasp a lost idea.

Jack London's hand up close could perhaps have at one time held a hardball.

Jack London's other hand, held low and out of sight, was clenched into a fist.

The artist, Cedric Wentworth, signed his last name in the base just before the statue was cast.
