Published in 1903, the novel traces the life of Buck, a massive, comfortable domesticated dog stolen from his peaceful California home and violently forced into service as a sled dog during the grueling Klondike Gold Rush. In the freezing, unforgiving environment of the Yukon territory, Buck quickly learns the 'law of club and fang', fighting vicious rival dogs and surviving brutal human masters. As the story progresses, Buck sheds the constraints of human civilization, eventually embracing his deep, primal instincts to become a legendary leader of a wolf pack.
