From the wilds of Alaska and the Klondike to the rough-and-ready sailing ships, Jack London gathered up a wealth of experience for some of the most exciting adventure tales ever written. He knew the ruthless, daring soldiers of fortune, and he pitted them against the forces of nature in a series of stories that for suspense and mystery are among the finest in our language. The Sun-Dog Trail and Other Stories includes some of London's best work: Brown Wolf, Make Westing, To Build a Fire, -tales of the frozen north, stories of the gold rush, the eternal fight for survival against the cold and famine of a primitive wilderness. But there is a new London included here as well: The Shadow and the Flash which is as modern and up to date as science fiction; Moon-Face which is as terrifying as a story by Edgar Allan Poe; and others which reveal a London amusing and startling as well as adventurous. These vivid pictures of pioneer life based on his own experience as a gold miner, oyster pirate or sailor are masterpieces in suspense and adventure - must reading for young and old alike.
