Description
A short but tantalizing adventure novel, The Call of the Wild follows the life of Buck, a sturdy Saint Bernard-Scotch Collie mix stolen from his easy life in California and put to the test among the merciless terrains of Yukon, Canada. All along the way, while in the care of both the cruel and the kind, Buck discovers a deeper, more primal skill for outwitting and outlasting man and nature—and ultimately proving himself legendary.

Jack London (1876-1916) was one of America's most widely read and influential adventure writers of the early twentieth century. Drawing on his own experiences as a sailor, traveler, and adventurer, London produced vivid works that explored survival, social struggle, and the forces shaping human character. His best-known books include The Call of the Wild, White Fang, The Sea-Wolf, and Martin Eden, all of which remain enduring classics of American literature.
