Description

White Fang is one of the great books written by Jack London. He uses his unique style of writing to describe the animals and their surrounding in a very interesting manner. The story takes place in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories, Canada, during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush and details White Fang's journey to domestication. 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. White Fang is part dog and part wolf. He soon learns to follow the harsh law of the North--kill or be killed. White Fang experiences the violent world of wild animals and the equally violent world of humans. As well as the kind nature of humans and how hard it can be for a wild animal to adapt to humans and their way of life. If you like animals, especially dogs you have to read this book.
