This is Jack London's second collection of short stories, first published in 1901. All the stories take place during the Klondike gold rush in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, or elsewhere in the North. About half of the stories feature the inhabitants of Forty Mile, the recurring cast of characters that were introduced in his first collection. In this book London is still finding his way as a writer, and this selection of tales is a mixture of the masterpiece and the mediocre.
