The Call of the Wild" (1903) and "White Fang" (1906) are world famous animal stories. Set in Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s, The "Call of the Wild" is about Buck, the magnificent cross-bred offspring of a St Bernard and a Scottish Collie. Stolen from his pampered life on a Californian estate and shipped to the Klondike to work as a sledge dog, he triumphs over his circumstances and becomes the leader of a wolf pack. The story records the "decivilisation" of Buck as he answers "the call of the wild", an inherent memory of primeval origins to which he instinctively responds. In contrast, White Fang relates the tale of a wolf born and bred in the wild which is civilised by the master he comes to trust and love. The brutal world of the Klondike miners and their dogs is brilliantly evoked and Jack London's rendering of the sentient life of Buck and White Fang as they confront their destiny is enthralling and convincing.

The author of the project is Bonanno Pisano. Construction of the tower was carried out in two stages, starting from August 9, 1173 , and with two long interruptions lasted for almost 200 years, until 1360 . The tower was built of white marble , ground floor - arcature each other floors surrounded by a gallery .The outer part of each gallery pillars formed with classical capitals, resting on arches closed .

Once thought that the slope of the tower was part of the project, but now this version is unlikely. Tower project was flawed from the outset - a combination of a small three-meter foundation and soft soil has led to the fact that after the construction of the third floor ( 1178 ) tower leaned . Soil and strengthened in 1198 the unfinished building temporarily opened .

The tower was designed vertical, but the slope began to be felt already in the process of construction and may be associated with factors such as the softness of the soil , unreliability or disproportion foundation blur ground under the tower during construction.

Although the tower tilted tower, built in the second half of the XIV century top of the tower , stands straighter .

Автором проекта является Боннано Пизано. Строительство башни велось в 2 этапа, начиная с 9 августа 1173, и с двумя длинными перерывами продолжалось почти 200 лет, до 1360 года. Башня построена из белого мрамора, первый этаж — аркатура, каждый из остальных этажей окружен галереей. Внешняя часть каждой галереи образована столбами с классическими капителями, опирающимися на закрытые арки.

Раньше считали, что наклон башни являлся частью проекта, но сейчас эта версия представляется маловероятной. Проект башни был ошибочен с самого начала — сочетание маленького трехметрового фундамента и мягкой почвы привело к тому, что после строительства третьего этажа (1178) башня наклонилась. Почву укрепили и в 1198 году незаконченное здание временно открыли.

Башня проектировалась вертикальной, но наклон начал чувствоваться уже в процессе строительства и может быть связан с действием таких факторов, как мягкость почвы, ненадежность или несоразмерность фундамента, размытие грунта под башней в процессе строительства.

Хотя сама башня наклонена, колокольня, построенная во второй половине XIV века наверху башни, стоит ровнее.
