Description
LONDON, Jack (1876-1916). White Fang. New York & London: The Macmillan Company, 1906.
8vo. Half-title; numerous color-printed plates by Charles Livingston Bull; 4pp. advertisements at end.

Original grey pictorial cloth stamped in white and black, spine gilt-lettered (lacking dust jacket, hinges starting, slight wear to extremities, some minor rubbing or scuffing).
FIRST EDITION, with the title-page a cancel on laid paper. Woodbridge and BAL identify copies with the cancel title-page as the second issue, though Merle Johnson states he knows of no copies with an integral title-page. Intended as a companion piece to The Call of the Wild, White Fang is the story of a savage part-wolf dog who is domesticated through the kindness of his owner.
