Bond was a friend of Jack London, who based his novel The Call of the Wild on Bond's dog. Bond reported on the gold rush in Nevada and California and investigated silver mines during while there were fights by Pancho Villa. His son, Marshall Bond, Jr. wrote an extensive biography titled "Gold Hunter: The Adventures of Marshall Bond."
