Thrown into a life-and-death struggle on the frozen Artic wilderness. Half St. Bernard, half shepard, Buck learns many hard lessons as a sled dog: the lesson of the leash, of the cold, of near-starvation and cruelty. And the greatest lesson he learns from his last owner, John Thornton: the power of love and loyalty. <p/>Yet always, even at the side of the human he loves, Buck feels the pull in his bones, an urge to answer his wolf ancestors as they howl to him. <p/>This edition of <i>The Call of the Wild</i> includes a Foreword, Biographical Note, and Afterword by Dwight Swain. <p/><b>Tor Classics are affordably-priced editions designed to attract the young reader.
