Jack London (1876—1916) was an outstanding American writer, publicist and public figure, the author of numerous adventure stories and tales. The collection “The Son of the Wolf” (1900) consists of nine tales of the so called “Northern cycle” which tell about the life of gold-diggers and the native population of Alaska. The writer, in an extremely masterly manner, unites the description of the hard realities of people’s life on the boundless expanses of the north with the spirit of romance and adventures, shows the man’s courage and endurance, willpower and fortitude under the conditions of bitter struggle for existence.
