The Call of the Wild is a vibrant story of Buck, a big and kind hearted dog whose carefree life of leisure was suddenly upset when he was stolen from his home in California and deported up north to be sold in Alaska during the late 1890s Klondike Gold Rush. Forced to fight to survive, eventually taken in by his last owner, John Thornton, to proximity of the Arctic Circle, he progressively depends on his primal instincts, sheds the comforts of civilization and responds to "the call of the wild", as master of his own.
