📓 Jack London's short fiction is often thought to be his greatest achievement. This collection, Lost Face, contains seven of his tales, including "To Build a Fire," the best known of all his stories. It tells the story of a new traveler in the Klondike who ignores warnings about traveling alone and whose life depends on the ability to build a fire. The title story is "Lost Face" (a Polish fur trader strikes a deal with the Nulato Indians who tortured and killed his companions).
