Jack London's fierce yet tender tale of loyalty between man and beast, told from the point of view of a dog.

On its face, the novel is the story of Buck, a dog stolen from his comfortable home on a California ranch and shipped to the frozen Yukon to be a trained as a sled dog. But this exhilarating tale of a canine hero's fight for survival is also a vivid depiction of the great gold rush to the Klondike in 1897. Brutal and fierce on one hand, this iconic adventure story is a heart-warming tale of the tenderness and loyalty between humans and animals, brilliantly told from the latter's perspective.
