Other editions of book Smoke Bellew

Although best known for his novel Call of the Wild, Jack London was a talented and prolific writer whose fiction spanned multiple genres. For its time, London's work also displayed a rare degree of experimentation with narrative form. Although Smoke Bellew is a traditional novel on many levels, it also plays with structure in interesting ways. Some literary experts point out that Smoke Bellew may more accurately be described as a series of interconnected short stories featuring the same title character than a novel. A must-read for fans of the action-adventure genre.
