Jack London was born on January 12, 1876, in San Francisco. He was deserted by his father and raised in Oakland by his mother Flora Wellman and stepfather John London, whose surname was Jack London's youth was marked by poverty. At the age of ten, he became an eager reader, and borrowed books from the Oakland Public Library.
After leaving school at the age of 14, London worked as a seaman, rode in freight trains as a hobo (无业游民) and accepted socialistic views as a member of protest armies of the unemployed. In 1894，he was put in prison for vagrancy (游荡). Without having much formal education, London educated himself in public libraries, and at the age of 19 he entered the University of California at Berkeley, where he started to earn his living by writing. His early stories appeared in the Overland Monthly and the Atlantic Monthly. In 1900, he married Elisabeth Maddem, but left her and their two daughters three years afterwards, eventually to marry Charmian Kittredge.
In 1901 London ran unsuccessfully on the Socialist Party ticket for mayor of Oakland. He started to produce novels, non-fiction (非小说类文学作品) and short stories, and became in his lifetime one of the most popular authors. London's first novel, The Son of the Wolf appeared in 1900. His Alaska stories, The Call of the Wild (1903), White Fang (1906) and Burning Daylight (1910) gained him a large reading public. Among his other works are The Sea-Wolf (1904) and The Road, a collection of short stories.
In 1902，London went to England. His report about the living conditions in the East End and in other working class areas of London, The People of the Abyss ( 1903), was a surprising success in the US but criticized in England. In 1906, he published his first collection of non-fiction pieces, The War of the Classes, which included his lectures on socialism, London also published a semi-autobiographical (半自传体的) novel Martin Eden (1909) and a travel book The Cruise of the Snark (1911)．
A few months before his death, London left the Socialist Party. Debts, alcoholism, illness, and fear of losing his creativity darkened the author's last years. He died on November 22,1916.
