Historia
"To Build a Fire" is the best known of all London's stories. It tells the story of a new arrival to the Klondike who stubbornly ignores warnings about the folly of traveling alone. He falls through the ice into a creek in 70-below weather, and his survival depends on being able to build a fire and dry his clothes - which he is unable to do. The famous version of this story was published in 1908.

Historia
Trapped in a job he hated and up to his neck in debt, Guy Grieve’s life was going nowhere. But with a stroke of luck, his dream of escaping it all to live in remote Alaska suddenly came true. Miles from the nearest human being and armed with only the most basic equipment, Guy built a log cabin from scratch and began carving a life for himself through fishing, hunting, and diligently avoiding bears. Packed with adventure, humor, and insight, this is the gripping story of an ordinary man learning the ways of the wild.

Historia
Ejnar Mikkelsen was devoted to Arctic exploration. In 1910 he decided to search for the diaries of the ill-fated Mylius-Erichsen expedition, which had set out to prove that Robert Peary’s outline of the East Greenland coast was a myth, erroneous and presumably self-serving. Iver Iversen was a mechanic who joined Mikkelsen in Iceland when the expedition’s boat needed repair.

Mawson's Will is the dramatic story of what Sir Edmund Hillary calls "the most outstanding solo journey ever recorded in Antarctic history." For weeks in Antarctica, Douglas Mawson faced some of the most daunting conditions ever known to man: blistering wind, snow, and cold; loss of his companion, his dogs and supplies, the skin on his hands and the soles of his feet; thirst, starvation, disease, snowblindness - and he survived.

"Storm Over Warlock" combines science fiction with fantasy, technology with witchcraft. Shann Lantee is lucky to be alive. He had snuck out of the small Terran base on the planet Warlock in the Circe system to find two artificially evolved wolverines, Taggi and his mate Togi, and bring them back to the base before anyone notices that they are missing. While he is gone, a force of Throgs, implacably hostile insectoid aliens, attacks the base and kills all of its occupants.

Sixty-five million years ago, a disastrous cataclysm eliminated three quarters of all life on Earth. Overnight, the age of dinosaurs ended. The age of mammals had begun. But what if history had happened differently? What if the reptiles had survived to evolve into intelligent life? In West of Eden, best-selling author Harry Harrison has created a rich, dramatic saga of a world where the descendants of the dinosaurs struggled with a clan of humans in a battle for survival.

So when her father loses his fortune and moves Yeva and her sisters out of their comfortable home among the aristocracy and back to the outskirts of town, Yeva is secretly relieved.

Martin Eden, Jack London’s semiautobiographical novel, is about a struggling young writer. It is considered by many to be the author’s most mature work. Personifying London’s own dreams of education and literary fame as a young man in San Francisco, Martin Eden’s impassioned but ultimately ineffective battle to overcome his bleak circumstances makes him one of the most memorable and poignant characters Jack London ever created.

Historia
John Griffith "Jack" London was an American author, journalist, and social activist. He was a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction and was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone.

Well....
Short. I expected that. About a dog and a man expected that. No spoilers here...But the dog was smarter than the man! LOL Ya, I should have expected that! Good narrator.

A Simple Lesson Worth Fifty Cents
The rational, egotistic mind of man contrasted with the instinctive mind of dog: a short lesson worth remembering.
The narration ought to have been in a more minor key, so to speak--it was a little too upbeat for the theme of this title. But hey, it's Jack London--find some pocket change and enjoy an evening's read.

Mi primer cuento de London
Me gustó el manejo de los símbolos: del fuego, el conocimiento, la vida y el instinto.

Love the story. Needs a different narrator.
This is a somber story and needs a narrator to read it in a somber tone. The narrator was way too theatrical. Almost sing-song like. Too bad.

Doesn't get old...
I read this story for the time 30 years ago at college in a lit class and it made quite an impression on me. I've reread it a handful of times since and just listened to it again... Haunting and beautifully crafted.

To build a fire
Classic London story as in it takes place in the Yukon Territory alongside cold and other threats. Oh, and of course, the main character is accompanied by a dog. Also classic London in that it details human alienation from nature and dependency on technologies. Evident in the end when the dog is able to safely find another camp.

Gripping
The story is gripping and fascinating. A man dealing with the unforgiving brutality of nature just doing its thing. The narrator is very effective in his delivery.

It truly makes you feel the cold.
I loved this author's take on the freezing cold and it's effects on the body and mind. The narrator did quite a fine job of translating some of the emotion of the man when he became confused as to what the weather did to his body.
