In the morning of the world, while his tribe makes its camp for the night in a grove, Red Cloud, the first man of men, and the first man of the Nishinam, save in war, sings of the duty of life, which duty is to make life more abundant. The Shaman, or medicine man, sings of foreboding and prophecy. The War Chief, who commands in war, sings that war is the only way to life. This Red Cloud denies, affirming that the way of life is the way of the acorn- planter, and that whoso slays one man slays the planter of many acorns. Red Cloud wins the Shaman and the people to his contention.

Jack London was an American novelist, journalist, social-activist and short-story writer whose works deal romantically with elemental struggles for survival. At his peak, he was the highest paid and the most popular of all living writers. Because of early financial difficulties, he was largely self educated past grammar school. London drew heavily on his life experiences in his writing. He spent time in the Klondike during the Gold Rush and at various times was an oyster pirate, a seaman, a sealer, and a hobo. His first work was published in 1898. From there he went on to write such American classics as Call of the Wild, Sea Wolf, and White Fang.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The Acorn Planter by Jack London.In "The Acorn Planter", London used the act of planting acorns to celebrate the arrival of agriculture in the Sonoma Valley and, in doing so, linked acorn planting to peacebuilding. A local indigenous man named Red Cloud is portrayed as a peacemaker. There is tension between the Red Cloud people and the arrival of the first American settlers and the play ends in tragedy. It is clear that London was seen in Red Cloud. In the story, Red Cloud uses the acorn plantation as a metaphor to make amends. This is how London perceived the act of planting too. The acorn represented peace because it represented the fruits of agriculture and London felt that the generosity of agriculture would lead to peace among men. In the words of Red Cloud,"When you sow kindness, you reap kindness. When you sow blood, you reap blood. He who plants an acorn gives way to life. He who kills a man kills the pot of a thousand acorns. Jack London, (born John Griffith Chaney; January 12, 1876 - November 22, 1916) John Griffith London, was an American novelist, journalist, and social activist.
