He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. London is famous for his contributions to early science fiction and also notably belonged to "The Crowd", a literary group an Francisco known for its radical members and ideas. Other notable works by this author include: “Martin Eden” (1909), “The Kempton-Wace Letters” (1903), and “The Call of the Wild” (1903).

Book excerpt: This collection of Jack London's stories touches on a variety of topics, from his love of boxing, to relationships between criminals, to the trials of life and travel on many frontiers, to an allegory about a king who desired a nose. London is considered a master of the story telling, a form much more to his liking and personality than his novels. He was active and quick of mind and the short story suited him well. The stories take place in diverse locales, including San Francisco, Tahiti, Korea, Australia, and the open seas. The quality of the stories also varies greatly, and in many ways the selections represent the zenith and the nadir of London's writing. Three of these stories, "The Apostate", "The Chinago", and "A Piece of Steak" are masterpieces of storytelling, among the best of London's career

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This was a very interesting story with which to begin an anthology. It’s a love story, and then again, it’s totally not. This married couple spent their entire lives pursuing a love uninhibited by physical contact, pursuing what they dubbed “satiety,” or total satisfaction. They loved life, yet in the end, their pursuit of a totally satisfying love and complete life was nothing more than a concept. “It was for the inordinate desire for joy that they forewent joy”—that thing they pursued most was the thing they despised most. It was the pleasure-delaying mentality taken to its ultimate extreme, and I’m pretty confident that Jack London thought them fools. I’m with him there! This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible.

Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-When God Laughs, and Other Stories by Jack London.Named after the first story, about a couple trying in vain to maintain an intensely idealistic romance against the erosions of time and the fickleness of human nature, the collection explores themes for which London became famous: the fight for survival. in the midst of hostility. environments, the most elemental drives of human nature and worker abuse in industrialized society.In The Apostate, his concerns with the working poor and his disgust for pre-union capitalism are evident in a grim story about a young man who is brutalized by subhuman working conditions in a textile factory, but achieves a kind of liberation in the end. London's fascination with primitive male characters is evident in Just Meat, a tale of two thieves planning the death of the other in a selfish attempt at a treasure trove of recently stolen jewelry.Like her famous novel The Sea Lion, the Make Westing and The 'Francis Spaight' stories (described as "A True Tale Retold") portray corrupt sea captains who abuse and terrorize their crews during nightmarish voyages.In the closing story, A Piece of Steak London sternly portrays the desperate struggles of an aging boxer as he takes on a younger contender in most of a grueling twenty-round fight.
