The Call of the Wild
A bold-spirited dog named Buck is stripped from his comfortable life on a California estate and thrust into the
rugged terrain of the Klondike. There he is made a sled dog and battles to become his team's leader and the
devoted servant of John Thornton, a man who shows him kindness amid the savage lawlessness of man and
beast.
White Fang
In the desolate, frozen wilds of northwest Canada, a lone wolf fights the heroic daily fight for life in the wild. But
after he is captured and cruelly abused by men, he becomes a force of pure rage. Only one man sees inside
