Description: TWO THRILLING ADVENTURE CLASSIC YARNS ABOUT DOGS JACK LONDON WROTE MORE THAN 50 novels, short stories, plays and essays but he is probably remembered mostly today for these two grand adventure yarns -The Call of the Wild and White Fang. He drew on his experiences as a young man in the Klondike gold rush and in the winter he spent in the Yukon when he wrote these stories that brought him international fame and have never lost their popularity. The two stories are brought together in this volume, a celebration of the author's writing skills and his concern for the welfare of animals. A native of Northern California's Bay Area, Jack London was just 40 years old when he died in 1916. THIS EDITION IS ONE OF A SERIES OF HANDSOME BOOKS FOR YOUNG READERS published by Sterling Children's Books of New York. They are beautifully designed and printed hardcovers that are likely to be collected in sets not only for reading enjoyment but also for display on the family bookshelves. Though they are aimed at young readers, they include classics that would appeal to adults too. Many familiar family favorites are in the series - such as Anne of Green Gables, Heidi, Little Women, Black Beauty, Peter Pan, The Wizard of Oz, and others. This book is brand new and has been opened only for the illustrations shown above. The art is by Scott McKowen, an award-winning graphic designer.
