Jack London spent nearly a year in Alaska and the Klondike, mining for gold and braving the Alaskan winter. There he was inspired to write what would become The Call of the Wild , one of his most famous novels. The Call of the Wild tells the tale of a domesticated dog stolen from his California family and sold to sledders in Alaska.
As he adapts to the harsh and wild environment, he slowly sheds domestication and returns to his primal roots. The Call of the Wild was London's first major success, ensuring he'd have a readership for his future writing and paving the way for him to become one of the first writers to amass a fortune from just his fiction. Jack London (died 1916) was a prominent voice of the late 19th and early 20th century.
Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. Adventure literature of the 19th and early 20th centuries captured the imagination of a reading public hungry for tales of exploration, danger, and heroism. The Call Of The Wild belongs to this tradition of gripping narratives that transported readers beyond the boundaries of their everyday lives.
