Kidnapped from his safe California home. Thrown into a life-and-death struggle in the frozen Arctic wilderness. Half St. Bernard, half shepherd, Buck learns many hard lessons as a sled dog, the lesson of the lash, of the cold, of near-starvation and cruelty. And the greatest lesson he learns from his last owner, John Thornton: the power of love and loyalty. Yet always, even at the side of the human he loves, Buck feels the pull in his bones, an urge to answer his wolf ancestors as they howl to him. -- By Jack London Published in 1903 This book belongs to the public domain and is available for anyone in the public to read or copy.
