Book Synopsis
This study explores how Jack London’s Northland odyssey - along with an insatiable intellectual curiosity, a hardscrabble youth in the San Francisco Bay Area, and an acute craving for social justice - launched the literary career of one of America’s most dynamic 20th-century writers.

Trade Review
'"Multum in Parvo" would be an appropriate title for this review. Seldom have I read a scholarly book that provided so much useful content in so few pages... Jack London has finally achieved recognition in his own country as a major author for all literary sseasons.'
Earle Labor, Western American Literature
