Description:

The Call of the Wild is Jack London's masterpiece of adventure and survival—one of the most widely read American novels of all time. Buck is a powerful St. Bernard-Scotch Collie mix living a life of ease on a California estate. When he is stolen and sold into the brutal world of the Yukon gold rush, everything he knows is stripped away. He learns the law of club and fang: the man with the club makes the rules, and once you fall, you die. Pulled through the snow by the whip and the leash, Buck sheds his domesticated skin. The ancient instincts buried deep in his blood awaken. He hears the call of the wild—the howl of his wolf ancestors echoing across the frozen forest. Each day, the call grows louder. Each day, he moves closer to leaving behind the world of men forever. Only one man holds him back: John Thornton, the miner who saves Buck's life and earns his fierce, undying loyalty. But even love may not be enough to silence the call. Published in 1903, The Call of the Wild is a stunning exploration of the thin line between civilization and savagery, instinct and loyalty, life and death. H. L. Mencken called it "a great story," and it has never been out of print. Brutal, beautiful, and unforgettable. This audiobook is based on the 1903 public domain text.
