White Fang Novel By Jack London Annotated Classic Edition

White Fang is part dog and part wolf, and the lone survivor of his family. In his lonely world, he soon learns to follow the harsh law of the North--kill or be killed. But nothing in White Fang's life can prepare him for the cruel owner who turns him into a vicious killer. Will White Fang ever know the kindness of a gentle master?White Fang is a beautiful wolf-dog hybrid, born in and raised in the harsh and dangerous wilderness of the Canadian Yukon. One day, however, White Fang is discovered by a local Native American man who brings him back to live in the Indian camp. White Fang has no true place in the wild or in the camp, and in order to be happy, must find out how to balance the brutality bred into him with obedience and respect. White Fang is a powerful adventure novel that explores redemption, morality, and the strength of the bond between animal and man. It is considered to be a companion piece to Jack London's best-known novel, The Call of the Wild, and has been adapted for the screen numerous times-most notably into a 1991 feature film starring Ethan Hawke.
