Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

One of the most popular and exciting adventure stories is now being reissued with vibrant, realistic paintings by a highly acclaimed artist and an introduction by award-winning author, Gary Paulsen. First published in 1903, this striking reissue is as relevant today as it was when it was first published. Black-and-white illustrations.

Synopsis:

Buck is born to a life of luxury in California, but he's betrayed by an estate gardener and sold to be a sledge dog in the frozen north. It is the time of the famous Klondike Gold Rush and dogs like Buck are in great demand. But Buck escapes to lead a wolf pack, and becomes a legend of the north.
