Green soft cover has edgewear, pages are clean and well bound, signature on first title page, 5 X 7.75" 282 pages. Grey Owl, an Englishman born and bred, lived like an Indian in Canada with his wife Anahareo, writing of the animals and of the Indians he came to love as his own. In this book, Grey Owl, or Archie Belaney, describes the change from the life of a trapper to that of a conservationist. With Anahareo, in Ontario, Quebec, and Saskatchewan, he came to know more of 'the beaver people' than he ever had before, and to act as their protector and friend. If for no other reason, Grey Owl deserves to be remembered as a prophet of conservation. Illustrated by 16 pages of glossy black/white photographs.
