White Fang is more than just an adventure story, though it does have all of the elements of that. Beyond the story of two men who set out on a dangerous journey, during which only one survives, this book points to the fact that we have influence over our environment and everything that we come in contact with. It is a tale that shows character growth, the effects of fear on us and how it changes those around us, and redemption.

Overview White Fang is a novel by American author Jack London and the name of the book's eponymous character, a wild wolfdog. First serialized in Outing magazine, it was published in 1906.

In the desolate, frozen wilds of north-west Canada, a wolf-cub soon finds himself the sole survivor of the litter. Son of Kiche - half-wolf, half-dog - and the ageing wolf One Eye, he is thrust into a savage world where each day becomes a fight to stay alive.
