Jack London 
The God of His Fathers 

When Baptiste was a young man he fell in love with a Frenchman’s daughter, but her father opposed the marriage. As a young man in the summer of 1897, Jack London joined the Klondike gold rush. From that seminal experience emerged these gripping, inimitable wilderness tales, which have endured as some of London’s best and most defining work. With remarkable insight and unflinching realism, London describes the punishing adversity that awaited men in the brutal, frozen expanses of the Yukon, and the extreme tactics these adventurers and travellers adopted to survive.
