1906 THE CALL OF THE WILD Jack London Hardcover

Regular price $85.00

1906 Hardcover edition of Call of the Wild by Jack London. Bumped corners and cocked. Deckled pages with foxing. Spine cracking at middle and back. All pages intact. Includes advertisements at the back of the book.


London  wrote Call of the Wild to share some of what he saw while living for a year in the Yukon Territory. He wrote it to convey the theme of transformation and how, over a period of time, one's entire life and intentions can change. Buck transformed from a pet to a wild dog from the first to the last chapter. The vicious dog fights, mistreatment of animals, and harsh undertones in Jack London's tale of the Klondike gold rush have spurred censorship calls since its publication in 1903. If you celebrate the freedom to read, this is a novel you want on your library shelf.
