'Wild' is the Call of the Wild, Jack London's seminal classic of a domestic dog that gets caught up in the Gold Rush of man's avarice and quest for adventure in the early 20th Century, and in the process is transformed into something more than his primitive self...
'White' is White Fang, the author's follow-up novel in which the process is reversed, and the benefits of civilisation are discovered by a wolf...
'Wild & White' is the cold, harsh and unforgiving landscape of the North, against which man and beast act out these dramas of adventure, survival and self-discovery.
This volume contains not only the full, unexpurgated text of the two classic novels, but fifteen other stories which expand upon London's vision of the North American wilderness as metaphor and symbol for the struggles faced within and by our Nature.
For this epic, definitive collection, editor Wulfric Thorsson provides a unique commentary from the perspective of the Mythologist, setting the stories within a context of mythic meaning, lycanthropy and personal becoming.
