Almost 122 centimeters - it was such a height that was a stack of written failures of various publishers, collected by American writer Jack London in the first five years of creative activity. But then the story of Back’s home dog was released, by the will of the chance to get from the southern paradise to the harsh north.
The book sometimes seems to be told on behalf of the dog - so accurately and in detail the writer conveys all the nuances of what is happening. It is no coincidence that readers remain on the side of the protagonist until the very last page. In his native estate, Back led the life of a saturated aristocrat. " She was replaced by complete deprivation, pain and difficulties, the life of a dog team leader. And we have to independently answer one of the most pressing questions: what is more destructive for strong nature? Perhaps this question must be asked from time to time for each of us.
The story "Call of the Ancestors" brought world fame to its author. The book continues the mini-series of Jack London"s publications with illustrations by Vladimir Kanavz. The realistic, detailed work of the artist perfectly conveys the contrast between the icy silence of the North and the flaming emotions of the heroes. Readers praised the previous books of the mini-series ("Tale of the Test. Stories" and "White Fang").
Hard binding with partial varnish. Thick white paper. A clear font, convenient for reading.
For secondary school age
