Publisher's Synopsis
Jack London was born a working-class, fatherless Californian in 1876. In his youth he was a boundlessly energetic adventurer on the bustling West Coast - by turns playing the role of hobo, sailor, prospector, and oyster pirate. He spent his brief life rapidly accumulating the experiences that would inform his acclaimed, bestselling books 'The Call of the Wild', 'White Fang', and 'The Sea Wolf'. This is a biography of his life and work.
