This book of a famous American writer Jack London (1876-1916) concludes stories and narratives of the northern cycle. The narratives about Alaska won recognition to their author by not only a heroic theme, majestic landscapes and critical situations: their spirit is not in struggle for gold but in struggle for human nature. A man with conscience, which does not freeze even in sharp froze, is a real hero of London’s early narratives. In animalistic stories “White Fang” and “The Call of the Wild” a narrative skill of this writer attained perfection.
