Jack London

Author and Adventurer

Image of Jack London

Jack London is known to people the world over as the author of such novels as The Call of the Wild and White Fang. In his short life of just forty years (1876-1916), he pursued a course of larger-than-life adventure as a sailor, tramp, common laborer, prospector, journalist, war correspondent, sociologist, and rancher.

The Huntington's archive of London's papers, numbering about 60,000 items, is the largest London collection in the world and also by far the largest literary archive of personal papers in the library.
