This is a copy of To Build a Fire by Jack London. This is a classic story that you may want to read and share with your friends.

To Build a Fire by Jack London is a literary piece that has been preserved and keep for public use. If you are interested to use this as one of your subject in your future study then please do so.

To Build a Fire is the story of a young miner who has come to the Yukon to find gold. He is traveling toward his camp on a cold, windy afternoon, against the advice of a seasoned miner. He falls through some ice and gets his feet wet, necessitating building a fire to dry off and warm up.

London began his writing career just as new printing technologies enabled lower-cost production of magazines. This resulted in a boom in popular magazines aimed at a wide public audience and a strong market for short fiction. In 1900, he made $2,500 in writing, about $77,000 in today's currency. Among the works he sold to magazines was a short story known as either "Diable" (1902) or "Bâtard" (1904), two editions of the same basic story; London received $141.25 for this story on May 27, 1902.

Anyway, this is a public document that I just compiled. You are free to keep this in your personal computer or device.

I will upload other files next week. You can check this out. You can find other helpful files here.
