Nineteenth-century London comes vividly alive in this story a
street urchin named Jaffy Brown. After a close call with an escaped
tiger, Jaffy goes to work for Mr. Charles Jamrach, the famed
importer of exotic animals. As the years pass, Mr. Jamrach recruits
Jaffy and another boy named Tim to capture a fabled dragon during
the course of an epic three-year whaling expedition in the East
Indies. But when a violent storm sinks the ship, Jaffy and Tim are
forced to confront their relationship to the natural world and the
wildness it contains. "Jamrach's Menagerie" is a truly gripping
novel about friendship, sacrifice, and survival.
