Wild Animals I Have Known

Meer over het boek

Focusing on realistic portrayals of wildlife, this collection of short stories by Ernest Thompson Seton marks a pioneering entry in wild-animal fiction. The first story, "Lobo the King of Currumpaw," draws from Seton's own experiences hunting wolves, transforming them into empathetic characters rather than mere villains. This approach not only captivated readers of the time but also established a precedent for future narratives that highlight the individuality and compassion of animals, particularly predators often misunderstood in literature.
