Kidnapped form his safe California home. Thrown into a life-and-death struggle on the frozen Artic wilderness. Half St. Bernard, half shepard, Buck learns many hard lessons as a sled dog: the lesson of the leash, of the cold, of near-starvation and cruelty. And the greatest lesson he learns from his last owner, John Thornton: the power of love and loyalty. Yet always, even at the side of the human he loves, Buck feels the pull in his bones, an urge to answer his wolf ancestors as they howl to him.

The Untamed North! Buck, a powerful young dog, is snatched away from an easy life in California and transported to the Far North. The Klondike at the turn of the century is filled with greedy prospecters for gold, wild Indians, and savage wolves. Buck becomes a sled dog and must learn cunning and toughness to survive. Trained by a master he comes to love, Buck becomes the strongest and fiercest sled dog in all of Alaska. But deep inside Buck feels the urge to be free of man's rule and to heed 'the call of the wild'

In "The Call of the Wild," experience the transformation of Buck, a domesticated dog uprooted from his comfortable home and thrust into the harsh realm of the Alaskan Yukon during the Gold Rush. Buck's journey from tame to wild, as he learns to survive in the brutal yet majestic environment, is a powerful exploration of nature versus nurture and the inherent call of the wild that resides in all creatures.

"White Fang," the companion tale, offers a contrasting perspective, following the life of a wolf-dog as he transitions from the wild to civilization. White Fang's struggle to adapt to the world of humans is a poignant examination of the themes of morality, redemption, and the impact of environment on character.

London's masterful storytelling, rich with vivid descriptions and profound insights, makes these stories resonate as much today as they did when first published. His deep understanding of nature and the complexities of animal and human behavior shines through in every page.

The Call of the Wild—Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time To this day Jack London is the most widely read American writer in the world," E. L. Doctorow wrote in The New York Times Book Review. Generally considered to be London's greatest achievement, The Call of the Wild brought him international acclaim when it was published in 1903. His story of the dog Buck, who learns to survive in the bleak Yukon wilderness, is viewed by many as his symbolic autobiography. "No other popular writer of his time did any better writing than you will find in The Call of the Wild," said H. L. Mencken. "Here, indeed, are all the elements of sound fiction." White Fang (1906), which London conceived as a "complete antithesis and companion piece to The Call of the Wild," is the tale of an abused wolf-dog tamed by exposure to civilization. Also included in this volume is "To Build a Fire," a marvelously desolate short story set in the Klondike, but containing all the elements of a classic Greek tragedy. "The quintessential Jack London is in the on-rushing compulsive-ness of his northern stories," noted James Dickey. "Few men have more convincingly examined the connection between the creative powers of the individual writer and the unconscious drive to breed and to survive, found in the natural world. . . . London is in and committed to his creations to a degree very nearly unparalleled in the composition of fiction."
