{"product_id":"stories-of-the-far-north-jon-tuska-9780803294349","title":"Stories of the Far North","description":"The Northwestern story emerged full-blown from the pen of Jack London, and his \"The League of the Old Men\" is a fitting introduction to these rigorous action tales, in which the inhospitable climate strips away civilized veneer and individuals must live or die by their cunning, instinct, and sometimes ruthlessness. The bond between man and dog and the character flaws revealed under the stresses of extreme isolation are just two of the classic themes explored in these works. The collection comes to a fitting climax of a century's worth of development with a new story by Tim Champlin, commissioned for this volume. Most of these stories were originally published in magazines and were heavily edited to meet space and style concerns. Stories of the Far North restores each work to its original form, uncut and as each author intended. Jon Tuska has written and edited numerous works about the American West, including The Western Story: A Chronological Treasury (Nebraska 1995).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jon Tuska\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0803294344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803294349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 5.95w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/1998 pg. 1695\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1999 pg. 162","brand":"Jon Tuska","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47452530213119,"sku":"9780803294349","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0634527a-e299-4516-a5a8-9437768cd829.jpg?v=1761928972","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stories-of-the-far-north-jon-tuska-9780803294349","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
