In the first book of the popular and influential Riverworld series, author Farmer introduces the Riverworld--a ten-million-mile-long river, the banks of which are populated with every person who ever lived--and the main characters, Sir Richard Burton, Samuel Clemens, and Jack London, not to mention the author`s customary alter ego, Peter Jarius Frigate. Winner of the 1972 Hugo Award for best novel.
