~ Collector’s Edition ~ Laminated Hardback with Jacket ~Stolen from a life of comfort and thrust into the harsh Yukon wilderness, Buck, a pampered dog, is forced to fight for survival. As he battles brutal conditions and rival sled dogs, his instincts awaken, drawing him deeper into his primal nature. Along the way, he encounters both friendship and cruelty, testing his strength and spirit. With each challenge, Buck feels the wild calling him, pulling him toward a world he never knew existed. A classic of American literature, The Call of the Wild captures the spirit of the Klondike Gold Rush and the rugged frontier life of the late 19th century. Published in 1903, the novel highlights the themes of survival, the struggle between civilization and the wild, and the powerful influence of nature. Its portrayal of a domesticated dog’s transformation into a wild creature resonated with contemporary readers and reflected broader societal shifts towards industrialization and urbanization. The book cemented London’s reputation as a leading voice in naturalist literature and continues to influence discussions on the relationship between humans, animals, and the environment.
