The Call of the Wild, White Fang, and Other Stories
DETAILED SUMMARY / BACK COVER

The Call of the Wild
, an elemental masterpiece about a domesticated dog’s reversion to primal instinct amidst the Klondike Gold Rush, and

Complementing these epic tales are other powerful stories, including the early feminist narrative “The Night-Born” and the pro-labor “South of the Slot,” all echoing themes of primal struggle, instinct, and the quest for social justice.
