Love of Life & Other Stories Jack London

Love of Life and Other Stories is a classic American short story collection by Jack London. In the featured short story "Love of Life," two men move through a serene and majestic landscape, bent under the weight of their packs. As they cross a rock-strewn river, one of the men falls and injures himself, only to be abandoned by his companion. This tale, along with the other seven stories presented in this collection of some of London's finest works, illustrates man's struggle against nature, the power of will, and the instinct to survive.
