1905128821905. New York: The Macmillan Company 1905. 3 pp undated ads. Original maroon cloth. First Edition which consisted of only 2530 copies -- fewer copies than any known printing of all earlier Jack London books except his first book THE SON OF THE WOLF 2028 copies. By contrast THE CALL OF THE WILD consisted of 71584 copies and THE SEA-WOLF consisted of 63337 copies. The book consists of seven essays on socialism. Much of the content derived from London's earlier trip to Europe after hanging around the London slums London had sallied off to Paris and Rome where he hobnobbed with the socialists in each city. To quote from London's preface: It is the hope of the writer that the socialistic studies in this volume may in some slight degree enlighten a few capitalistic minds. The capitalist must learn first and for always that socialism is based not upon the equality but upon the inequality of men. This is a near-fine copy slightly faded on the spine as usual but otherwise just a little rubbing at the very tips. Quite an uncommon London title.

Color frontispiece and 7 color plates in text by Charles Livingston Bull. "White Fang is the titular character and a novel by American author Jack London. First serialized in Outing magazine it was published in 1906. The story takes place in Yukon Territory Canada during the Klondike Gold Rush at the end of the 19th-century and details a wild wolfdog's journey to domestication. White Fang is a companion novel and a thematic mirror to London's best-known work The Call of the Wild which is about a kidnapped domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild. Much of the novel is written from the view-point of his canine character enabling London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans. White Fang examines the violent world of wild animals and the equally violent world of humans. The book also explores complex themes including morality and redemption. White Fang has been adapted for the screen numerous times including a 1991 film starring Ethan Hawke. The Macmillan Company hardcover books
