John Griffith "Jack" London (born John Griffith Chaney, January 12, 1876 – November 22, 1916) was an American novelist, journalist, and social activist. A pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction, he was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone.

Some of his most famous works include The Call of the Wild and White Fang, both set in the Klondike Gold Rush, as well as the short stories "To Build a Fire", "An Odyssey of the North", and "Love of Life". He also wrote of the South Pacific in such stories as "The Pearls of Parlay" and "The Heathen", and of the San Francisco Bay area in The Sea Wolf.

London was part of the radical literary group "The Crowd" in San Francisco and a passionate advocate of unionization, socialism, and the rights of workers. He wrote several powerful works dealing with these topics, such as his dystopian novel The Iron Heel, his non-fiction exposé The People of the Abyss, and The War of the Classes.

I read Call of the Wild while in high school over fifty years ago, I fully didn't appreciate the bookIt is a sad story as much as I do now,
PS, I also had abet with my son-in-law as what kind of dog Buck was he said he was a Husky I said he was a St Bernard, I won a free cup of coffee.It is a sad story on how brutal man can be to animals. You will feel sorry for these dogs. I have always had dogs in my life.If you treat them with love and respect they will be your best friend for life.
Thank You,

I have read about half of them but I found many short stories I was not familiar with here. As Jack was selling many stories as serials to monthly magazines, you will find some tales duplicated with details changed here, but it just illustrates how writers had to make a living at the dawn of the 20th century. One of America's great writers, London writes in fast, punchy, character rich style. Perfect for periodic reading between other books.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another London Classic

Jack London's 'Stories of the North' is a collection of the writers short stories pertaining to life in the Yukon. Like all London's work the tales concern struggles not against nature but respect for the force of nature itself. Unlike Hemmingway who chose to try to defeat the environment through hunting and fishing, London chose to understand it.
This piece isn't for everyone. The style and content may prove to be to specific a genre for some. But taken purely on it's story lines and fine writing ability these are all well worth reading. I'd especially recommend this for a novice London reader. It's a good way of getting to understand the style in a short, easy to read book.
In conclusion if you like arctic styled adventure or stories of human drama (man against the elements) this is right up your alley, if not, I still think an author the caliber of Jack London is always worth the read.

The words of Jack London transport the reader to places they will never go. These places are lost to time but there, in his words, waiting for the reader. London, through his alcohol and opiate saturated mind regurgitates his adventures in a way no other writer has ever been capable of doing. His depictions of the great northern wilderness and the sea and the men who traveled these places burst into life just as a flame jumps from a smoldering ember catching ones attention in the dark cold of the night.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jack London was a master story teller
Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2013

These stories were written a long time ago, I can tell by the superb command of our language and the number of words I was looking up. Jack London was a masterful.writer. I could almost feel his descriptions of the weather, hear the swiftness of flowing water and the smell of bacon frying on an open fire. I actually thought I was interacting with the characters he wrote about. I hated to see them go. It's fun to read and be entertained at the same time.These stories were better than a movie. B.K.

I wasn't really very impressed with this collection----I didn't get far into it before realizing that it wasn't going to be up to the storytelling standards expected of a "London" story---and I confess that I've put them back on the shelf for reading another day when I haven't anything else to read. Maybe I'm too harsh in my judgement ---but these illustrate pretty well that you get what you pay for.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book of short stories by Jack London. Although I am Australian and live in a mild climate, the description of the cold as described by Jack London, had me reaching for my jacket. A number of authors writing short stories tend to repeat their themes in two or several of their stories, this is not true in this case, where each story is different to any
other story in this set and a full story in their own right.

I strongly recommend this book.

I have enjoyed Jack London stories since I was in the 6th grade mainly because of the adventure aspect to a boy in a routine Midwest agricultural and factory town. Where the most exciting thing to do was to go down to the Mississippi river and fish or hunt. Jack London caught the mind of an imaginative, adventure-starved boy and took me away on adventures to far-away places. I would recommend Jack London stories for any young men/boys with an interest in adventure
