<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"One of London's most interesting and ambitious works"-Robert Greenwood</p> <p><b><i>White Fang</i> is an allegorical adventure story about a part wolf, part dog who is born in the violent, harsh environment of the Canadian Yukon territory.</b> The novel begins with two men attempting to bring a corpse back to civilization as they are followed by a pack of starving wolves. The novel, in its second act, switches to the perspective of the wolves. As a pup, White Fang endures battles of survival with his mother, One-Eye, against other wolves and a lynx. When One-Eye is in the close vicinity to a Native Indian village, she is recognized as an animal who had been part of the encampment at one point. Grey Beaver, a young hunter, adopts White Fang. The other dogs and pups resent the new addition to the village, and torment White Fang, who in turn becomes contentious. He is sold to a dog fighter, and into a brutal life of violence. He is eventually rescued and brought to California, to start a very different life in the care of a loving master and his family. </p> <p>Although <i>White Fang</i> has become a very popular classic among readers, as an allegorical novel it is of great interest to sophisticated readers. The book has been adapted into many film versions, TV series, and animations.</p> <p>With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of <i>White Fang</i> is both modern and readable. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><i>White Fang</i> (1906) follows the eponymous character, a hybrid wolfdog contending with the harsh realities of survival in the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush. Through the kindness of a young man, White Fang transforms from a ruthless beast into a gentle companion. This riveting adventure story will appeal to readers of all ages. </p>
