 Full text and plot summary of White Fang by Jack London
White Fang was published in 1906, two years after The Sea-Wolf and three years after the novel to which it is effectively its sequel (The Call of the Wild).
White Fang, this crossbreed, grows up to be the greatest fighter known and - drawn to the ways of the Wild - he responds to vicious behaviour with violence and savagery of his own, following the laws of mimicry enforced by danger and hostility.
Yet he is humbled by Grey Beaver and in time and with the intervention of humans he is given the opportunity to respond appropriately to kindness instead of the anger that has trapped him after every conflict.
