The wistful nature of the man's final thoughts illustrate the human cost of the gold rush.

Explanation:

An objective statement is the one not influenced by personal feelings or opinions.

The first detail is not objective as it contains a personal opinion about descriptive writing (... is an excellent example of...).

The second detail tells about the narrator's personal feelings (I was heartbroken...).

The third detail contains another personal opinion, this time about London's narrative abilities (London is masterful...).

The only detail that is stated like a certain fact that no one could have a different opinion or feelings about is the last one: The wistful nature of the man's final thoughts illustrate the human cost of the gold rush.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
