Jerry of the Islands was initially published in 1917 and is one of the last works by Jack London. The novel is set on the island of Malaita a part of the Solomon Islands archipelago which in 1893 became a British protectorate. The hero of the novel is Irish terrier Jerry who was a brother of dog named Michael about whom London wrote another novel Michael Brother of Jerry.
Jerry was born in Santa Isabel Island a part of the Solomon Islands archipelago. Jerry's owner was Mr. Haggin who worked as a plantation guard and used Jerry to chase black slaves. Higgin gave Jerry to Mr. Van Horn Captain of ship Arangi under condition to return the dog if something bad happens. The ship was engaged in delivering so-called "reverse" slaves who worked for three years on a plantation. During a stop on Malaita island Arangi was attacked by the natives who killed the captain and skipper. Jerry was kicked from the ship which was looted and burned. A native boy found Jerry in the sea and delivered the dog on the shore. Later Jerry was brought to a village where tribe chief Bashto decided to use Jerry for improving the breed of local dogs. Jerry received a taboo status and began to live among the tribesmen.
