Chapter 2
Buck did not steal for joy of it, but because of the clamor of his stomach (he was hungry). He did not rob openly, but stole secretly and cunningly, out of respect for club and fang. In short, the things he did were done because it was easier to do them than not to do them. His development (or retrogression) was rapid. ch 2
