a sensational masterpiece March 20, 2003 23 out of 23 found this review helpful
I first read White Fang when I was 8 years old by nicking it from my uncle and since then, i.e. 20 years later, I have read it at least 50 times. This is a truly sensational masterpiece. The way London describes the ever-lasting struggle for survival, the dangers present in true life along with the deep feelings and emotions of a half-wolf, is overwhelming. By the end of the book, you realise that have falen in love with white fang and want him to be yours. I most certainly recommend this book to all children and also grown ups. read this book once and then you will realise that London was a genius, who truly understood the human nature. In this book, London illustrates the different natures of human being: love, hatred, greed, vengence, justice, etc. This is a book for all ages and I assure you that if you look beyond the dog and human masks, you'll never regret having read this book and you most certainly won't consider it a waste of time.
This is without a doubt the best book I have ever read. December 28, 1998 7 out of 19 found this review helpful
This book is about a Wolf cub who grows up to be one of the most feared animals in North America. He has many fights and many owners, some kind and some horrible. There is a lot of deaths in this book and is very exciting.
