"The Call of the Wild" by Jack London follows the journey of Buck, a powerful and proud St. Bernard-Scotch collie mix, who is stolen from his comfortable California home and sold into the brutal world of the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush. As he is thrust into the harsh realities of life as a sled dog, Buck must adapt to survive, confronting both the brutality of his human masters and the wild instincts that begin to awaken within him. Through trials and tribulations, he finds his true place in the wild, answering the primordial call of his ancestors. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
