This six-volume collection offers a sampling of some of nineteenth-century American writer Jack London’s finest works. Best known for his rugged, wind-swept adventure stories, such as White Fang and The Call of the Wild, London was also a passionate social advocate, sailor, amateur farmer, and colorful public personality. True to his personal credo: “I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. . . . The proper function of a man is to live, not to exist,” London wrote dynamic works in which gritty realism mingles with philosophical questioning. Explore a variety of London’s works from the action-packed thrills of The Sea Wolf to the dystopian musings of The Iron Heel.
