Description
Jack London's epic of the great outdoors from 1903 tells of the dog Buck, taken from his safe home and thrust into the burtal Arctic north of the Yukon wilderness. It is published here with the novel "White Fang', the story of an abused wolf-dog and the marvelously desolate short story 'To Build a Fire'.
Author Biography
Jack London (1876-1916), by turns a renegade adventurer, a war correspondent, and an avowed socialist, first achieved fame with The Son of the Wolf (1900), a collection of short stories drawn from his experiences in the Klondike gold rush. "The greatest story Jack London ever wrote was the story he lived, said Alfred Kazin.
