Blurb (from book jacket): "The Call of the Wild centers on Buck, a dog bred for a life of ease on a California estate, who is kidnapped and sold to Klondike gold hunters. To survive the biting cold and his ruthless masters, Buck must listen to the Call and learn the ways of the wolf-ancestors who guide him from within.
"White Fang tells the story of a half-wolf, half-dog nearly destroyed by the vicious cruelty of mankind. Brought to the very brink of his existance, White Fang is lucky enough to experience the one thing that can save him-human love. Slowly, the ferocious White Fang grows into a creature capable of selfless bravery, undying loyalty, and affection.
Opinion: A couple of some good classic stories.
