Infos

Tales from the Klondike. ""The Faith of Men"" is a short story collection originally published in 1904 and contains eight of Jack London's adventure tales, all of them set in London's favorite milieu -- the Yukon Territory. ""A Relic of the Pliocene"" concerns a ""homely, blue-eyed, freckle-faced"" hunter named Thomas Stevens and his tracking and eventual killing of a prehistoric mammoth. ""A Hyperborean Brew"" also concerns Thomas Stevens and his schemes. ""In Batard,"" an evil master makes a monster of an evil dog. Other stories included are ""The Faith of Men,"" ""Too Much Gold,"" ""The One Thousand Dozen,"" ""The Marriage of Lit-Lit,"" ""Batard,"" and ""The Story of Jees Uck."" . About Jack London: Jack London (1876-1916), was an American author and a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction. He was one of the first Americans to make a lucrative career exclusively from writing. London was self-educated. He taught himself in the public library, mainly just by reading books.
