'YOU SAID YOU LOVED ME
YOU ARE MINE! The whole world can go
to smash and smithereens before I'll let you go' ! TO HER AMAZEMENT SHE FELT THE DESIRE TO YIELD!
Her head said "NO," but her heart said "YES"! She could not resist; she was his!
It's a question that every girl and every man has to answer at least once-Should one follow the heart line? - One man offered her wealth, fame, and a high station in society; the other, a balking brute whispered of love in a cottage.
WHICH DID SHE CHOOSE, and WHY?
Here is one of the greatest stories Jack London ever wrote, and one of the most sensational, unusual and extraordinary stories of adventure and romance that the world has ever read. It's the story of a youngster raised like an animal of the wild in the forest and mountains and of his advent into the world of men and love..
