Intelligent and self-assured Buck, a cross between a St. Bernard and a Scottish shepherd, lives a royal life in the family of a California judge. However, during the gold rush, there is a demand for strong dogs, and Buck is stolen by a trader who supplies dogs to the Far North. In a struggle with a brute armed with a heavy club, the dog has no chance: he is defeated, but his spirit does not succumb. When the dog team runs out of strength and the ruthless, dull owner beats Buck into unconsciousness, the prospector Thornton drives off the brute, kneels beside the dog, and with rough, gentle hands searches for signs of broken bones… a deep, mutual friendship and love develops between man and dog. They experience many dangerous adventures together! Several springs pass, and they find a shallow deposit in a wide valley, where gold appears like a layer of yellow butter across the bottom of the pan – but the most brutal event that Buck has faced in the company of humans is approaching. And the bond with man begins to break… The Call of the Wild, Jack London's most widely read book, is a great adventure novel with a rich, dramatic plot and vividly portrayed characters of people and dogs. It is also a philosophically grounded book. These are the reasons why it continually evokes excited interest from readers of all ages.
