The story revolves around lives of Two men who are out in the wild of the north. Their dogs disappear as they are lured by a she-wolf and eaten by the pack. They only have three bullets left and Bill, one of the men, uses them to try to save one of their dogs; he misses and is eaten with the dog. Only Henry and two dogs are left; he makes a fire, trying to drive away the wolves. They draw in close, and he is almost eaten, saved only by a company of men who were traveling nearby.
There is a reason that books are considered to be classics, and that is the great writing that goes into them. Jack London is one of the great writers. I put him up there with Melville. “White Fang” is a true classic. London has the ability to put the reader into the mind of the wolf-dog. It is extraordinary. I would recommend both this and “Call of the Wild” to any reader.55
Classic.55
Strange and inconsistent pacing. The first few chapters were thrilling. Then it got slow. Then slower. Then it moved along a bit. Then slowed. Then got interesting, then more interesting. And then the ending was a rush job with many missed opportunities to glorify the proponent.35
Jack London is such an awesome prolific writer - makes you feel like you are right there - experiencing everything White Fang is and more ! Must read for any age ! Luv2Read55

I would’ve given it 5 stars had the ending not been so abrupt. I think the ending deserved a little more. Extremely well written and descriptive book. Jack London really takes you into the mind of White Fang.45
