Ready Reference Treatise: The Call of the Wild

About this ebook
But, in the recent years it has been noticed that a very large majority of the students, without reading the original texts, rely on the guide books or notes prepared by their teachers or others. This is definitely not a healthy habit because students do pass their exams with the help of such notes; they miss so many things which haunt them in their later lives.
I would strongly advise all the students to read the original text once again even if you have already read it, after reading this short treatise. You will see that the same story, after reading this treatise, will begin to give many new meanings to you.
All the best.

Chapter 1: Introduction
Jack London is considered as one of the most famous fiction writers in the English speaking world. The illegitimate son of Flora Wellman and William Chaney, Jack London was born in San Francisco on 12th January, 1976. His mother, Flora Wellman was the rebellious daughter of a very rich aristocratic family. His father, William Chaney, was a travelling astrologer. Unfortunately, when Flora was pregnant William Chaney abandoned her.
Eight months after the son’s birth, Flora married John London who was a grocer and a veteran of the Civil War. The infant took his last name London
.
Jack London was brought up in Oakland. His family was not well off and throughout his youth, Jack lived in poverty. He could study only up to Eight Grade but he was a kind of hungry reader. Jack frequently visited the Oakland Public Library. It was only in that library where Jack London educated himself. The books he read there laid the foundation of his future literary career.
Jack London’s adolescent years were spent in turmoil and he led a very rough life. He spent some time as a pirate in San Francisco Bay. He travelled to Far East on sealing expeditions. He went across America like a pauper, a kind of tramp.
Soon Jack was fed up with the life of an aimless wanderer and he returned to Oakland and resumed his studies. He did not want any more adventures in those days. He graduated from Oakland High School. Jack London was fortunate enough to have been admitted to the University of California at Berkeley but he completed only one semester there.
In Canada’s Yukon Territory, the Klondike gold rush had already begun, so in the year 1897 Jack London left his college and set out in search of fortune in the snowy north Canada.
Many people got rich during the gold rush, but Jack London did not make money but he gained enough experience in that harsh terrain and it helped him in his future career as a writer.
He started writing in the late 1890s and it continued until his death in 1916.
