The Call of the Wild

A short but tantalizing adventure novel, The Call of the Wild follows the life of Buck, a sturdy Saint Bernard-Scotch Collie mix stolen from his easy life in California and put to the test among the merciless terrains of Yukon, Canada. All along the way, while in the care of both the cruel and the kind, Buck discovers a deeper, more primal skill for outwitting and outlasting man and nature--and ultimately proving himself legendary.
