I think that the answer is B. I say this because the story was set in the Canadian territories, and AK is the closest.

Answer:

B. Alaska.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack London's short story "In a Far country" is set in Northern Canada and thus, have the references to Canadian territories. The story describes that a man travels to a far country and suggests that if one travels this far distance, he needs to unlearn certain things like abandoning the previous Gods and ideals. He later provides a sense of belonging and affiliation to his prior ground as he looks back to relive his savage youth. Thus, we may conclude that the story has a strong reference to northwest Canadian territories and thus, Alaska.
