Book excerpt: From "The Strength of the Strong": Their heads were matted with uncut hair, long locks of which often strayed before their eyes, beady and black and glittering like the eyes of birds. They were narrow between the eyes and broad between the cheeks, while their lower jaws were projecting and massive. It was a night of clear starlight, and below them, stretching away remotely, lay range on range of forest-covered hills. In the distance the heavens were red from the glow of a volcano. At their backs yawned the black mouth of a cave, out of which, from time to time, blew draughty gusts of wind. Immediately in front of them blazed a fire. At one side, partly devoured, lay the carcass of a bear, with about it, at a respectable distance, several large dogs, shaggy and wolflike. Beside each man lay his bow and arrows and a huge club. In the cave-mouth a number of rude spears leaned against the rock. . . . Also included in this volume are, "South of the Slot," "The Unparalleled Invasion," "The Enemy of All the World," "The Dream of Debs," "The Sea-Farmer," and "Samuel."

Book excerpt: They laughed boisterously, like big children, at recollection of a previous story hiswords called up. Long-Beard laughed, too, the five-inch bodkin of bone, thrustmidway through the cartilage of his nose, leaping and dancing and adding to hisferocious appearance. He did not exactly say the words recorded, but he madeanimal-like sounds with his mouth that meant the same thing."And that is the first I remember of the Sea Valley," Long-Beard went on. "We werea very foolish crowd. We did not know the secret of strength. For, behold, eachfamily lived by itself, and took care of itself. There were thirty families, but we gotno strength from one another. We were in fear of each other all the time. No oneever paid visits. In the top of our tree we built a grass house, and on the platform 4outside was a pile of rocks, which were for the heads of any that might chance totry to visit us. Also, we had our spears and arrows. We never walked under the treesof the other families, either. My brother did, once, under old Boo-oogh's tree, andhe got his head broken and that was the end of him."Old Boo-oogh was very strong. It was said he could pull a grown man's head rightoff. I never heard of him doing it, because no man would give him a chance. Fatherwouldn't. One day, when father was down on the beach, Boo-oogh took aftermother. She couldn't run fast, for the day before she had got her leg clawed by abear when she was up on the mountain gathering berries. So Boo-oogh caught herand carried her up into his tree. Father never got her back. He was afraid. Old Boooogh made faces at him."But father did not mind. Strong-Arm was another strong man. He was one of thebest fishermen. But one day, climbing after sea-gull eggs, he had a fall from the cliff.He was never strong after that. He coughed a great deal, and his shoulders drewnear to each other. So father took Strong-Arm's wife. When he came around andcoughed under our tree, father laughed at him and threw rocks at him. It was ourway in those days. We did not know how to add strength together and becomestrong.""Would a brother take a brother's wife?" Deer-Runner demanded.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jack London (1876-1916), was an American author and a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction. He was one of the first Americans to make a lucrative career exclusively from writing. London was self-educated. He taught himself in the public library, mainly just by reading books. In 1898, he began struggling seriously to break into print, a struggle memorably described in his novel, Martin Eden (1909). Jack London was fortunate in the timing of his writing career. He started just as new printing technologies enabled lower-cost production of magazines. This resulted in a boom in popular magazines aimed at a wide public, and a strong market for short fiction. In 1900, he made $2,500 in writing, the equivalent of about $75,000 today. His career was well under way. Among his famous works are: Children of the Frost (1902), The Call of the Wild (1903), The Sea Wolf (1904), The Game (1905), White Fang (1906), The Road (1907), Before Adam (1907), Adventure (1911), and The Scarlet Plague (1912).

Book excerpt: “Yes, if he had gone to live in another tree by himself.”“But we do not do such things now,” Afraid-of-the-Dark objected.“It is because I have taught your fathers better.” Long-Beard thrust his hairy paw into the bear meat and drew out a handful of suet, which he sucked with a meditative air. Again he wiped his hands on his naked sides and went on. “What I am telling you happened in the long ago, before we knew any better.”“You must have been fools not to know better,” was Deer-Runner's comment, Yellow-Head grunting approval.
