Notă biografică

Grey Owl (1888-1938), an Englishman, immigrated to Canada as Archibald Belaney in 1906 and quickly constructed an identity as a Native, assuming the Ojibwa name Wa-sha-quon-asin. He was world-renowned for his work as Canadaâ??s pioneer conservationist and spread his message of preservation through multiple bestsellers, including Tales of an Empty Cabin and The Adventures of Sajo and Her Beaver People.
James Polk has written on Grey Owl and other animal-story writers in articles, reviews, and a book, Wilderness Writers. The former editorial director of House of Anansi Press, he was publishing policy adviser in the Ontario government and is the author of a novel, short stories, and a play. He lives in Toronto.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Part memoir, part history of the vanishing wilderness, and part compendium of animal and First Nations tales and lore, Grey Owl's first book was published in 1931. It is a passionate, compelling appeal for the protection and preservation of the natural environment.
