The Berkeley Digital Library SunSITE is pleased to announce the
availability of The Jack London Collection at:
http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/London/
The site comprises a collection of Jack London's writings (from short
stories to full-length books), correspondence, photographs, research aids
and critical essays. Presently there are eighty-six images and
seventy-five letters, postcards, and other papers relating to Jack
London's life and times available in digitized representations online.
There are five complete books available, from famous novels like "Call of
the Wild" and "White Fang" to lesser-known works like "People of the
Abyss" and "The Iron Heel." Nearly thirty short stories are available,
including "To Build a Fire" and "The God of His Fathers". Several
critical essays are included, as well as a glossary of critical terms and
a critical annotated bibliography of London biographies. The Jack London
Collection is by far the largest collection of London materials available
on the Internet.
