A companion novel to Jack London's The Call of the Wild, White Fang
is the story of a wild dog's journey toward becoming civilized in
the Canadian territory of Yukon at the end of the nineteenth
century. White Fang is characteristic of London's precise prose
style and innovation use of voice and perspective. Much of the
novel is written from the viewpoint of the animals, allowing London
to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans.
White Fang relies on his instincts as well as his strength and
courage to survive in the Yukon wilderness-despite both animal and
human predators-and eventually comes to make his peace with man.
Jack London spent a year living in the Yukon and drew heavily upon
his experiences there while writing the book. He later said, "It
was in the Klondike that I found myself."
