    A La Patrulla Pesquera, relats publicats el 1905 a la revista "The Youth's Companion", trobem la descripció d'uns personatges que entenien que en aquella badia i en aquella època tot era vàlid, que l'audàcia i el valor eren els que determinaven les jerarquies. Els protagonistes intenten mantenir l'ordre fent servir les mateixes estratagemes, la trampa i l'engany, per detenir els infranctors d'una llei que perseguia la pesca indiscriminada i salvatge. Un relat que arriba als nostres dies amb una inusitada vigència i ens convida a reflexionar sobre l'explotació i la conservació dels recursos naturals.

    WHITE FANGWhite Fang's journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890s Klondike Gold RushSynopsisDark spruce forest frowned on either side the frozen waterway. The trees had been stripped by a recent wind of their white covering of frost, and they seemed to lean towards each other, black and ominous, in the fading light. A vast silence reigned over the land. The land itself was a desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not even that of sadness. There was a hint in it of laughter, but of a laughter more terrible than any sadness-a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the sphinx, a laughter cold as the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility. It was the masterful and incommunicable wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life and the effort of life.About White FangWhite Fang, novel by Jack London, published in 1906. The novel was intended as a companion piece to The Call of the Wild (1903), in which a domesticated dog reverts to a wild state. White Fang is the story of a wolf dog that is rescued from its brutal owner and gradually becomes domesticated through the patience and kindness of its new owner, Weedon Scott. White Fang eventually defends Scott's father from attack by an escaped convict.First serialized in Outing magazine, it was published in 1906. The story details White Fang's journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush. It is a companion novel (and a thematic mirror) to London's best-known work, The Call of the Wild, which is about a kidnapped, domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild.As early as 1925, the story influenced The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. The story was also adapted to film, and it has since seen several more cinematic adaptations, including a 1991 film starring Ethan Hawke and a 2018 original film for Netflix.
