Really great read, a exciting trip across the North Pacific. ( )

A wonderful exciting book...romantic and dreadful both in parts, great character development....quite different at the end of the book than they start at the beginning. ( )

I was impressed. I expected an engaging story with some element of struggle. But this work, published originally in 1904, adds philosophical insight and a concise demonstration of literary techniques. The character's basis in London's own biography as a writer is interesting. I was originally drawn to this book upon having read about it while on the ferry to San Francisco. ( )

ONe of the best authors second half twentieth century. ( )
