Buck, the magnificent offspring of a St. Bernard and Scotch shepherd dog, lives contentedly on a California estate until he is stolen and shipped northwards to be trained as a sledge dog. Uprooted from the civilized world, he is thrown into the cruel and savage struggle of the Klondike gold rush. The story of his heroic adventure and his response to the 'call of the wild' has not only excited its many readers but also struck a deeper, mythic chord.

The Call of the Wild, White Fang & To Build a Fire: (A Modern Library E-Book)
'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.'

His father, Elmo, a huge St. Bernard, had been the Judge's inseparable companion, and Buck bid fair to follow in the way of his father. He was not so large--he weighed only one hundred and forty pounds--for his mother, Shep, had been a Scotch shepherd dog. Nevertheless, one hundred and forty pounds, to which was added the dignity that comes of good living and universal respect, enabled him to carry himself in right royal fashion. During the four years since his puppyhood he had lived the life of...
