There have been a number of film/TV adaptations of this Jack London classic. But this is the only adaptation that remains faithful to the book, and for that it deserves praise. As a result, it could also be used in schools and classrooms. In this adaptation (as in the book), the dog - Buck - is the star, not the human character - John Thornton. The book is about Buck's journey from domesticated pet to creature of the wild. And this excellent adaptation mirrors the same journey. Well done.
