À propos de cet e-book

First published in 1902, “Children of the Frost” is a collection of powerful short stories based around North America and the Klondike Gold Rush. Showcasing London's iconic writing style, he shares with us tales of Native Americans and Europeans trying to live amongst one another to the backdrop of the harsh terrain and climate of Alaska. John Griffith London (1876 – 1916), commonly known as Jack London, was an American journalist, social activist, and novelist. He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. London is famous for his contributions to early science fiction and also notably belonged to "The Crowd", a literary group an Francisco known for its radical members and ideas. The stories include: contents include: “In the Forests of the North”, “The Law of Life”, “Nam-Bok the Unveracious”, “The Master of Mystery”, “The Sunlanders”, “The Sickness of Lone Chief”, “Keesh, the Son of Keesh”, “The Death of Ligoun”, “Li Wan, the Fair”, “The League of the Old Men”, etc. Other notable works by this author include: “The Cruise of the Dazzler” (1902), “The Kempton-Wace Letters” (1903), and “The Call of the Wild” (1903).
