The Trail of the Meat
Two men, Bill and Henry, are hauling a coffin through the frozen Yukon wilderness. They're being stalked by a wolf pack driven desperate by famine.
The She-Wolf
The mystery of the disappearing dogs gets solved. A she-wolf, half dog by appearance, has been luring the sled dogs away from camp one at a time so the pack can kill them.
The Hunger Cry
Henry is now alone. The wolf pack closes in completely, and he spends several nights fighting them off with burning sticks from his fire.
The Battle of the Fangs
The perspective shifts entirely to the wolf pack. The famine continues, and the pack is fracturing.
The Lair
The she-wolf leads the one-eyed wolf to a cave she knows, and they settle there. She gives birth to a litter of cubs.
The Grey Cub
A she-wolf gives birth to a litter in a cave den, but only one cub survives the famine. That survivor is grey with a white face patch, and the chapter follows his earliest days: b…
The Wall of the World
The grey cub's eyes open and he begins to explore the cave. Everything outside the den mouth is terrifying to him at first.
The Law of Meat
The grey cub begins to understand the basic rule of his world: eat or be eaten. He watches his mother hunt, sees prey animals die, and starts to understand that life feeds on life.
The Makers of Fire
The she-wolf leads the grey cub toward an Indian camp, where he encounters humans for the first time. He is terrified but also fascinated.
The Bondage
White Fang adjusts to life in the Indian camp, but the adjustment is painful. The other dogs attack him constantly because he is a wolf and an outsider.
The Outcast
White Fang is now half-dog, half-wolf and belongs to no group. The other sled dogs attack him constantly because he is different, and the Native dogs in the camp treat him as an o…
The Trail of the Gods
White Fang follows a group of men traveling through the wilderness and, for the first time, chooses to stay near humans rather than return to the wild.
The Covenant
White Fang bonds with Gray Beaver and enters into what London frames as a kind of unspoken agreement between dog and master.
The Clinging Death
White Fang encounters a bulldog named Cherokee and nearly dies. Cherokee's fighting style, locking onto the throat and holding, is something White Fang has never faced before.
Beauty Smith
Beauty Smith acquires White Fang from Gray Beaver by getting Gray Beaver addicted to alcohol and then buying the dog once Gray Beaver is desperate enough to sell.
The Mad God
White Fang is sold to Beauty Smith, a cruel and ugly man who exploits White Fang's ferocity for profit. Smith starves and torments White Fang until the wolf's personality collapse…
The Reign of Hate

The Clinging Death
White Fang recovers from his injuries under Weedon Scott's care, but he is so damaged by abuse that he attacks anyone who comes near.

White Fang fully accepts Weedon Scott as his master and experiences something close to love for the first time. When Scott prepares to leave for California without him, White Fang…
The Southland
