Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classics edition.
What would it be like to live by the rules of your true, wild nature? Follow the adventures of Buck, a giant St. Bernard mix who is stolen from a ranch in California and sold as a sled dog in the lawless, Gold Rush-era Klondike. As he encounters the violence of men and other animals, Buck quickly realizes he must ditch his manners and tap into his wild instincts if he wants to survive. Can Buck answer the call of the wild? With moments of heart-wrenching brutality, Jack London’s most famous novel has snared readers since 1903.
Customer Reviews
Terrific.
Considering when it was written this is a terrific book. When describing the "superdog" abilities of Buck, the story approaches silliness, but it remains very enjoyable and readable.
