The Call of the Wild

The Call of the Wild is a short adventure novel about a half-St. Bernard, half-Shepherd dog named Buck, who is kidnapped from his comfortable home in California and sold to become a sled dog in Alaska during the days of the Gold Rush. While Buck adapts to his new harsh life, he discovers his ancient roots and summons boundless strength. This gripping story, which has been produced in several film versions starring actors ranging from Clark Gable to Harrison Ford, has remained enormously popular since its original publication more than a century ago.
