Synopsis
This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes a glossary and reader's notes to help readers appreciate the richness of London's language and perspective.
In the frozen North during the Gold Rush days, marauding canine killers hunt in packs and search for their next victim. Sadistic dog trainers are looking for easy money. And the unconquerable spirit of a vicious wolf roams free until he receives a human being's love and understanding. All these come together in White Fang, Jack London's classic sequel to The Call of the Wild.
While the novel chronicles the life story of White Fang from birth until his eventual domestication, the story also serves as a comparison of what London saw as the characteristics we all share with world of the Wild--adapt and thrive or die. We are as helpless against the uncaring savagery of the North as is the newborn wolf cub.
The fast-paced action of White Fang never lets up; danger is always waiting beyond the next pile of snow or beneath the claws of a snarling predator. Weaving adventure, bravery, greed, survival of the fittest, and instinct versus nurture, London's novel was an immediate success when it was first published in 1905, and it has been so ever since.

From the Back Cover
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.
