“To Build a Fire” is a short story by American author Jack London. There are two versions of this story, one published in 1902 and the other in 1908. The story written in 1908 has become an often anthologized classic, while the 1902 story is less well known. The 1908 version is about an unnamed protagonist who ventures out in the subzero boreal forest of the Yukon Territory. He is followed by a native dog and is en route to visit his friends—ignoring warnings from an older man about the dangers of hiking alone in extreme cold. The protagonist underestimates the harsh conditions and slowly begins to freeze to death. After building one fire and leaving it to venture on in his journey he later on attempts to build another but fails. He slips into unconsciousness and dies of hypothermia… Famous works of the author Jack London: “The Cruise of the Dazzler”, “A Daughter of the Snows”, “The Call of the Wild”, “The Kempton-Wace Letters”, “The Sea-Wolf”, “The Game”, “White Fang”, “The Iron Heel”, “Martin Eden”, “Burning Daylight”, “A Son of the Sun”, “The Abysmal Brute”, “The Valley of the Moon”, “The Mutiny of the Elsinore”, “The Star Rover”, “The Little Lady of the Big House” and many more.

On the other hand, there was keen intimacy between the dog and the man. The one was the toil-slave of the other, and the only caresses it had ever received were the caresses of the whip-lash and of harsh and menacing throat-sounds that threatened the whip-lash. So the dog made no effort to communicate its apprehension to the man. It was not concerned in the welfare of the man; it was for its own sake
