THE CALL OF THE WILD
With Illustrations by Philip R. Goodwin and Charles Livingston Bull
Decorated by Charles Edward Hopper
“A tale that is literature ... the unity of its plan and the firmness of
its execution are equally remarkable ... a story that grips the reader
deeply. It is art, it is literature.... It stands apart, far apart with
so much skill, so much reasonableness, so much convincing logic.”--_N.
Y. Mail and Express._
“A big story in sober English, and with thorough art in the construction
... a wonderfully perfect bit of work. The dog adventures are as
exciting as any man’s exploits could be, and Mr. London’s workmanship is
wholly satisfying.”--_The New York Sun._
“The story is one that will stir the blood of every lover of a life in
its closest relation to nature. Whoever loves the open or adventure for
its own sake will find ‘The Call of the Wild’ a most fascinating
book.”--_The Brooklyn Eagle._
THE SEA WOLF
Illustrated by W. J. Aylward
“This story surely has the pure Stevenson ring, the adventurous glamour,
the vertebrate stoicism. ’Tis surely the story of the making of a man,
the sculptor being Captain Larsen, and the clay, the ease-loving,
well-to-do, half-drowned man, to all appearances his helpless
prey.”--_Critic._

FOOTNOTES:
[A] The negroes always properly called this word “Voodoo.” Among
theatrical folk it has been strangely and senselessly corrupted into
“Hoodoo.” The negroes believed in the Voodoo as firmly as the player
people do.--AUTHOR.
[B] The court incident here related is a fact. The author of this book
was present in court when it occurred.--AUTHOR.
[C] This story of Robert Copeland is historical fact, except
for such disguises of name, etc. as are necessary under the
circumstances.--AUTHOR.
