An unforgettable reading experience. Jack London's adventure novel, published in 1903, which describes the Gold Rush era, is considered one of his best works. It tells the story of Buck, a mix between a St. Bernard and a sled dog, who is exposed to human brutality and violence, and only learns about kindness and compassion through the gold seeker Jack Thornton: a powerful plea for humanity and charity, and an exciting adventure that captivates until the very last page.
