Loved “ Call of the Wild” as a boy. Read it over and over again. I also remember enjoying a boys adventure story he wrote called, “Cruise of the Dazzler” about a boy that runs away to sea.

Still my favorite author (fiction anyway) after getting hooked on his work in my teens, mostly due to subject matter.

Unfortunately, my literary hero was an avowed socialist.
