Description

Domestic dog Buck is stolen and sold into Alaskan sled work in the Klondike, learning survival as wilderness and ancestral instinct reclaim him. London's adventure of loyalty, hardship, and the call back to the wild. Spoken as when the North teaches a house dog what blood already knew.

Author

Jack London (1876–1916) wrote as if survival itself were a form of literature. Born in San Francisco, he worked as a sailor, oyster pirate, and Klondike prospector before becoming one of America's first celebrity novelists — a man who earned a fortune from magazines and never stopped arguing about class, nature, and power. The Call of the Wild and White Fang made the wilderness think: dogs with inner lives, men reduced to hunger and will.
