The Call of the Wild, White Fang & to Build a Fire Paperback - 1998
by Jack London; Introduction by E. L. Doctorow
London's epic of the great outdoors from 1903 tells the story of Buck, a dog taken from his safe home and thrust into the brutal Arctic north of the Yukon wilderness. It is published with the novel "White Fang", the story of an abused wolf-dog, and the marvelously desolate short story, "To Build a Fire".
From the rear cover
Generally considered to be London's greatest achievement, The Call of the Wild brought him international acclaim when it was published in 1903. His story of the dog Buck, who learns to survive in the bleak Yukon wilderness, is viewed by many as his symbolic autobiography. White Fang (1906), which London conceived as a "complete antithesis and companion piece to The Call of the Wild", is the tale of an abused wolf-dog tamed by exposure to civilization. Also included in this volume is "To Build a Fire", a marvelously desolate short story set in the Klondike, but containing all the elements of a classic Greek tragedy.
