Good one. Read that some years ago, Jack London really wrote them true to life, whatever you call his style of being in the moment with a character.
 
A classic, for sure. If you have an e-reader, and you dig around on Amazon, etc. you can find a lot of old Jack London and others for free.

A couple other great 'free' finds I've come across:

"Hunting with the Bow and Arrow" by Saxton Pope

"Woodcraft and Camping" by George Washington Sears (Nessmuk)
 
First time I read it, I could FEEL the cold! The short movie narrated by Orson Wells is good also.
 
With moving pitchers!

I remember watching that (on reel-to-reel film, that really dates me!:eek:) while in junior high English class. That really brings back some memories and was my start of loving the works of Jack London.
 
Read that years ago. I rememer the feeling i had when that poor guy had that oh **** moment.
