London's most famous novels are The Call of the Wild, The White Fag, The Sea wolf, The Iron Heel, and Martins Eden.
In a letter dated Dec 27, 1901, London's Macmillan publisher George Platt Brett said "he believed Jack's fiction represented 'the very best kind of work' done in America."
Critic Maxwell Geissmar called The Cald of The Wild "a beautiful prose poem";
Editor Franklin Walker said that it "belongs on a shelf with Walker" and novelist E.L.Doctorow called it "a mordant parable ... his masterpiece.
The historian Dale L. Walker commented:
Jack London was an uncomfortable novelist, that form too long for his natural impatience and the quickness of his mind. His novels, even the best of them, are hugely flawed.
