From the author of The Call of the Wild comes a tale originally published in 1902: After studying in Europe, fearless and independent Frona Welse makes a stir when she returns home to Alaska. Embark on an unforgettable journey to the Yukon as Frona navigates survival and love in the harsh, untamed wilderness.

Jack London’s A Daughter of the Snows introduces us to Frona Welse, a strong-willed, fiercely independent woman who returns to Alaska after studying in Europe. Set against the rugged, unforgiving landscape of the Yukon, the story follows Frona’s encounters with both the wilderness and the people of the Klondike during the Gold Rush. She challenges societal expectations, particularly in her unconventional relationships and friendships, and finds herself entangled in a love triangle involving two very different men: Gregory St. Vincent, a refined Englishman, and Vance Corliss, a rugged, intellectually driven American. As Frona navigates love, betrayal, and adventure, she confronts both her personal ideals and the harsh realities of survival in a world marked by stark contrasts of wealth and poverty, civilization and savagery.
