White fang was one of the first book's I read. I enjoyed reading it as I love animals especially wolves and dogs. I have read the book a few more times after that.

Anything by Jack London is good. I enjoy reading about man versus nature. Nature always wins. Gary Paulson, who has written about survival in the woods is also good. He has a totally different style and writes about different situations besides the wild. Do not expect Jack London when you are reading Gary Paulson.
