Call of the ancestors. Legends about the Far North. London J.

The north of Jack London is the world of dazzling whiteness of snow and the blinding mind of gold fever; A world where an outrageous cold only plows human passions, where states easily profit from and the last hopes are broken in an instant, where the characters are excavated and fate is irreparably broken; The world of strong, strong -willed, purposeful men and brave, decisive, selfless women; The world in which man and nature again and again experience each other for strength and in which both people and animals once inevitably be heard by the call of their ancestors coming from the depths of their nature...
