****************************
Jack London's celebrated masterpiece delivers a fast-paced, rugged adventure about power, romance, and reinventing oneself on your own terms. To truly appreciate the rich depth of this adventure, one must look at the extraordinary life of Jack London. Born in San Francisco in 1876, London lived a life that was just as dramatic as any of his fictional stories. In his youth, he worked exhausting hours in factories, sailed the Pacific Ocean, and eventually joined the historic Klondike Gold Rush in 1897. Although he did not find literal gold in the frozen rivers, he returned with real-world observations that inspired his most celebrated masterpieces, including The Call of the Wild and White Fang.
