Jack London: The Short Stories

While Jack London is famed for novels like White Fang and The Call of the Wild, the short story is where the author's true genius lay. This collection includes four of these wonderful short stories: "The Law of Life," in which an old Indian chief reflects on life and death in his final hours, alone in the snow; "The White Silence," a story of three travelers in the far north, struggling on their long journey home; "In a Far Country," in which two fatally unprepared men join a gold expedition to the Yukon, and "An Odyssey of the North," a tale of a revenge seeker's travels across the northern seas.
