The Story of Keesh: This story recounts the legend of Keesh, an Eskimo boy who used "brains not brawn" to defeat a powerful polar bear and save his people from starvation. The White Silence: In London's naturalistic story, "The White Silence," a trio of characters have to cope with the cruel laws of nature in order to survive in the remote, vast land of the Yukon.
