The story of a love that grew and a gold rush that was big.
Smoke Bellew, a San Francisco journalist, is tired of his humdrum city existence. He wants a mans life. So he joins in the stampede to the gold fields.
He is hailed by a young and pretty girl as Chechaquo.
What does she mean?
Tenderfoot.
The sarcasm stings him to still greater efforts. He overcomes the terrible hardships of the rough life on the trail across the Alaskan snows and wins through in every sense of the word.
Read this typical Jack London tale, it is one of his very best.
