Jack London (1876 - 1916) was an American novelist,
journalist and social activist. Pioneering the genre of magazine fiction and prototyping science fi ction, he became one of the
fi rst writers, who gained worldwide fame and a large fortune. “A Daughter of the Snows” is the author’s fi rst novel. It tells the story of strong and self-reliant woman Frona Welse from
Yukon, who has problems with the local community because of her manners and dubious friends. While being in love for two at once, she cannot choose between local man Gregory St
Vincent, who turns out to be cowardly and treacherous, and mining engineer Vance Corliss.
