American adventure writer Jack London lived in the Yukon less than a year -- he left in June 1898 after a bout with scurvy -- but his writings immortalized the North, particularly the animal stories like The Call of the Wild, White Fang, and The Son of Wolf. The cabin contains more than 60 photos, documents, newspaper articles, and other London memorabilia.
