Jack London State Historic Park will mark the 150th birthday of author and explorer Jack London throughout 2026, honoring the legacy of the world famous storyteller. Best known for works like "The Call of the Wild" and "Martin Eden," London’s writing continues to resonate globally and remains studied in many schools and adapted for film. The celebration will also highlight his work at Beauty Ranch in Sonoma County, where his ideas once considered unconventional are now recognized as early concepts of biodiversity and sustainability.
