A Daughter of the Snows is Jack Londons first novel. Set in the Yukon, it tells the story of Frona Welse, a Stanford graduate and physical Valkyrie who takes to the trail after upsetting her wealthy fathers community by her forthright manner and befriending the towns prostitute. She is also torn between love for two suitors: Gregory St Vincent, a local man who turns out to be cowardly and treacherous; and Vance Corliss, a Yale-trained mining engineer. The novel is noteworthy for its strong and self-reliant heroine, one of many who would people his fiction. Her name echoes that of his mother, Flora Wellman, though her inspiration has also been said to include Londons friend Anna Strunsky. Despite the progressive attitude toward women, the novel focuses on the racial superiority of Anglo-Saxons. The novel was commissioned by publisher S. S. McClure, who provided London a $125 a month stipend to write it.
