London, Jack

Buck, who is half St. Bernard and half Scotch shepard, is abducted and taken to the Klondike where he reverts to the wild and becomes a leader of a pack of wolves.

A half-dog, half-wolf is rescued from an abusive life of dog-fighting and learns from a good-hearted owner to accept humans.

Collects "The Call of the Wild, " in which a dog in the Klondike reverts to wilderness life and becomes the leader of a pack of wolves; and "White Fang, " in which a wolf-dog trained to be a vicious fighter struggles to live in both the world of dogs and that of the humans, who show him love.

White Fang is part dog, part wolf - and the only one of five tiny cubs to survive. In his lonely world, he soon learns to follow the harsh law of the North - kill or be killed.

Buck is stolen from his family and sold as a sled dog, but when he hears the wolves howling at night, he realizes he needs his freedom.

Presents an illustrated edition of the 1903 story about the adventures of Buck, a part St. Bernard, part Scotch shepherd, that is forcibly taken to the Klondike goldfields where he eventually becomes the leader of a wolf pack.
