Swept up in the Gold Rush of 1897, young Jack London headed north to strike it rich in the Klondike and discovered something more precious than gold the seeds of the stories that would flower into his classic novels The Call of the Wild and White Fang, and timeless short stories such as "To Build A Fire." The narrative follows London as he treks up the ruthless Chilkoot Trail, survives an avalanche, braves the lethal Whitehorse Rapids, and conquers many more dangers of the Yukon along his quest for gold.
