Publisher's Synopsis
Jerry is an Irish terrier bred in the Solomon Islands by Mister Haggins, a white trader. Since puppyhood, he has been taught to do only one thing - chase niggers, the native inhabitants of the region. And so he does. He excels in his job and is soon given to another trader, Captain Van Horn, who quickly becomes Jerry's beloved, one and only 'white-god'. As they travel from island to island and from bay to bay, Jerry's love for his owner grows stronger every day.This peaceful time ends when Van Horn's ship, Arangi, gets attacked by the natives of Somo. None of the crew members survive and Jerry is suddenly left all alone amongst the people he once treated as his biggest enemies.
