''Wild'' is the Call of the Wild, Jack London''s seminal classic of a domestic dog that gets caught up in the Gold Rush of man''s avarice and quest for adventure in the early 20th Century, and in the process is transformed into something more than his primitive self...''White'' is White Fang, the author''s follow-up novel in which the process is reversed, and the benefits of civilisation are discovered by a wolf...''Wild & White'' is the cold, harsh and unforgiving landscape of the North, against which man and beast act out these dramas of adventure, survival and self-discovery.This volume contains not only the full, unexpurgated text of the two classic novels, but fifteen other stories which expand upon London''s vision of the North American wilderness as metaphor and symbol for the struggles faced within and by our Nature.For this epic, definitive collection, editor Wulfric Thorsson provides a unique commentary from the perspective of the Mythologist, setting the stories within a context of mythic meaning, lycanthropy and personal becoming.

Jack London (1876-1916), was an American author and a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction. He was one of the first Americans to make a lucrative career exclusively from writing. London was self-educated. He taught himself in the public library, mainly just by reading books. In 1898, he began struggling seriously to break into print, a struggle memorably described in his novel, Martin Eden (1909). Jack London was fortunate in the timing of his writing career. He started just as new printing technologies enabled lower-cost production of magazines. This resulted in a boom in popular magazines aimed at a wide public, and a strong market for short fiction. In 1900, he made $2,500 in writing, the equivalent of about $75,000 today. His career was well under way. Among his famous works are: Children of the Frost (1902), The Call of the Wild (1903), The Sea Wolf (1904), The Game (1905), White Fang (1906), The Road (1907), Before Adam (1907), Adventure (1911), and The Scarlet Plague (1912).

High quality 140 page edition with original text that has been reset for an enjoyable reading experience unlike other shorter editions.This beloved classic tells the story of Buck, a kind-hearted dog suddenly uprooted from his California home and transplanted to the exotic wilds of Alaska during the 1890s Yukon Gold Rush. Enslaved and forced to pull a heavy sled through miles and miles of frozen ice with little or nothing to eat and frequent beatings, Buck regresses into a primitive form of himself, which allows him to survive the harsh conditions and dangerous environment. He quickly learns the rules of the wild and fights for, and wins, his place as the leader of the team. When new incompetent drivers take over the sled, a kind man named John Thornton rescues Buck from this life of cruelty and certain death. Buck sets off on a journey of a lifetime with this new master whose life he saves several times. Although often racked with the primal urge to run off and join the wolf packs-his brothers from the wild-he stays with Thornton until he has no option but to join them as their new leader. This book, one of the great dog stories of all time, can also be read as a parable of a man reduced to his own resources in a hostile environment, or as an escape from civilization and its discontents.
