Publisher Description: 2019 Reprint of 1906 Edition. White Fang was first serialized in Outing Magazine, it was published in book form in 1906. The story details White Fang's journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890's Klondike Gold Rush. It is a companion novel (and a thematic mirror) to London's best-known work, The Call of the Wild, which is about a kidnapped, domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild. In gripping detail, London describes the harsh realities of survival in the Yukon among all species in a harsh, unyielding environment. White Fang is part wolf, part dog, a ferocious and magnificent creature that London uses to explore his thoughts on the subject of wildness, domestication and survival. |
