This book is the second part of a two-volume edition, with the maximum possible completeness representing Jack London's works about fascinating wanderings, risky adventures and severe trials, which the author - and then his heroes - experienced in the snowy expanses of the American North. From a string of his own impressions and stories told by old-timers of this region, on the pages of the book emerges a special, unique in its silent and ascetic beauty of the world - the world of dazzling whiteness of the snows and dazzling mind-blinding gold rush; the world of treacherous-unreliable ice floes and hummocks - and cowardice, cowardice and betrayal, inevitable in the face of death, the world of silent and majestic mountains and nesuetnogo majesty of the human spirit, the world where man and nature again and again test each other for strength and where, in defiance of the icy breath of death, people and animals are relentlessly moving forward, driven by the inexorable love of life ... The book includes the novel "Time-Not-Waiting" (1910) and three collections of stories published in 1907-1912, as well as stories and essays from other books of the writer and various periodicals.
