82. To Build A Fire - Jack London To Build A Fire. by. Jack London (18761916). Bibliographic Notes First publishedin Youth s Companion in 1902. This revised version first published in http://www.kingkong.demon.co.uk/gsr/fire.htm

To Build A Fire by Jack London (1876-1916) Bibliographic Notes: First published in Youth's Companion in 1902. This revised version first published in Century Magazine 1908 August, and collected in the book Lost Face Day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main Yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. It was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. It was nine o'clock. There was no sun nor hint of sun, though there was not a cloud in the sky. It was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, a subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. This fact did not worry the man. He was used to the lack of sun. It had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view. He plunged in among the big spruce trees. The trail was faint. A foot of snow had fallen since the last sled had passed over, and he was glad he was without a sled, travelling light. In fact, he carried nothing but the lunch wrapped in the handkerchief. He was surprised, however, at the cold. It certainly was cold, he concluded, as he rubbed his numb nose and cheekbones with his mittened hand. He was a warm-whiskered man, but the hair on his face did not protect the high cheekbones and the eager nose that thrust itself aggressively into the frosty air.

Library Jack London Online Dictionary Spelling Center Jack London Jack London was born in San Francisco. He was deserted by his father, "Professor" William Henry Chaney, an itinerant astrologer, and raised in Oakland by his mother Flora Wellman, a music teacher and spiritualist. London's stepfather John London, whose surname he took, was a failed storekeeper. London's youth was marked by poverty. At the age of ten he became an avid reader, and borrowed books from the Oakland Public Library, where Ina Coolbirth recommended him the works of Flaubert, Tolstoy and other major novelists. After leaving school at the age of 14, London worked as a seaman, rode in freight trains as a hobo and adopted socialistic views as a member of the protest armies of the unemployed. In 1894 he was arrested in Niagara Falls and jailed for vagrancy. These years made him determined to raise himself out of poverty but they also gave later material for such works as The Sea-Wolf (1904), which was partly based on his horrific experiences as a sailor in the Pacific Ocean. Without having much formal education, London spent much time in public libraries reading fiction, philosophy, poetry, political science, and at the age of 19 gained admittance to the University of California in Berkeley. During this period he had already started to write. London left the school before the year was over and went to seek his fortune in the Klondike gold rush of 1897. His attempt was unsuccessful. London spent the winter near Dawson City, suffering from scurvy. In the spring he returned to San Francisco with his notebook full of plans for stories.

DOCUMENTOS Jack London Jack London (1876-1916): Tanto o más que su insólita experiencia vital, evocada "Martin Eden" (1909), sorprende comprobar cómo Jack London pudo presagiar en esas mismas páginas su suicidio siete años antes de matarse. Decidió marcharse agobiado por los delirios del alcohol, cuando su "vida dejó de ser ávida de vida". Así las cosas, Martin Eden no es sólo la crónica novelada de una existencia, también es la de una muerte: la de un hombre a quien ni el dinero ni la gloria pudieron redimir de su destino fatal. Nacido en San Francisco (California), John Griffith -verdadero nombre de London-, vio la luz por primera vez el 12 de enero de 1876. Hijo de un astrólogo ambulante, al que la madre del futuro escritor abandonó apenas nacido éste, sería su padrastro, un droguero de Oakland llamado John London, quien diera el apellido de pluma al escritor. Por lo demás, bien poco fue lo que London dio al joven John. Obligado por su padrastro a trabajar siendo aún adolescente, Jack abandonó el hogar paterno con tan solo quince años para enrolarse en su primer barco dos después. Posteriormente sería soldado, descargador de muelle, buscador de oro en Alaska y alguna otra cosa al margen de la ley. Aquellos empleos de sus primeros años le aportarían los argumentos de todas sus novelas.

98. Jack London, His Life And Books (Jack London State Historic Park) The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my daysin trying to prolong them. I shall use my time Jack London (1876 1916) http://www.parks.sonoma.net/JLStory.html

Jack London - his life and books "I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time" Jack London (1876 - 1916) Jack London Jack London fought his way up out of the factories and waterfront dives of West Oakland to become the highest paid, most popular novelist and short story writer of his day. He wrote passionately and prolifically about the great questions of life and death, the struggle to survive with dignity and integrity, and he wove these elemental ideas into stories of high adventure based on his own firsthand experiences at sea, or in Alaska, or in the fields and factories of California. As a result, his writing appealed not to the few, but to millions of people all around the world. Along with his books and stories, however, Jack London was widely known for his personal exploits. He was a celebrity, a colorful and controversial personality who was often in the news. Generally fun-loving and playful, he could also be combative, and was quick to side with the underdog against injustice or oppression of any kind. He was a fiery and eloquent public speaker, and much sought after as a lecturer on socialism and other economic and political topics. Despite his avowed socialism, most people considered him a living symbol of rugged individualism, a man whose fabulous success was due not to special favor of any kind, but to a combination of unusual mental ability and immense vitality.
