“The Wild still lingered in him and the wolf in him merely slept.”
~ Jack London, White Fang
A companion novel to Jack London's 'The Call of the Wild', 'White Fang' is the story of a wild dog's journey toward becoming civilized in the Canadian territory of Yukon at the end of the nineteenth century.
'White Fang' is characteristic of London's precise prose style and innovation use of voice and perspective. Much of the novel is written from the viewpoint of the animals, allowing London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans.

This edition is printed in specially-designed large type for easier reading, and is printed on non-glare paper.
When White Fang was first published in 1906, Jack London was well on his way to becoming one of the most famous, popular, and highly paid writers in the world. White Fang stands out as one of his finest achievements, a spellbinding novel of life in the northern wilds.
In gripping detail, London bares the savage realities of the battle for survival among all species in a harsh, unyielding environment. White Fang is part wolf, part dog, a ferocious and magnificent creature through whose experiences we see and feel essential rhythms and patterns of life in the animal kingdom and among mankind as well.
It is, above all, a novel that keenly observes the extraordinary working of one of nature's greatest gifts to its creatures: the power to adapt.
