"Out of the white wilderness, out of the Far North, Jack London, one of America's most popular authors, drew the inspiration for his robust tales of perilous adventure and animal cunning. Swiftly paced, vividly written, the six stories included here deal with the main theme of London's work--the law of the club and the fang, man's instinctive reveral to primitive behavior when pitted against the brute force of nature.". Stories included: The Call of the Wild, Diable - A Dog, An Odyssey of the North, To the Man on Trail, To Build a Fire, Love of Life. Foreword by Franklin Walker.
