Adventure by Jack London
This book revolves around a plantation owner in the Solomon Islands and his use of native labor. His work force is mainly former cannibals who are conscripted to service and their hatred of the white man and their desire to kill him. I'm nearly finished reading it now the story is pretty good. An interesting read to say the least. Controversial at the time of its writing, it is even more so today.
