Curwood, James Oliver, — The Grizzly King.

NY, Grosset & Dunlap, (1918). G. From Owosso, Michigan, Curwood writes in his Preface a confession of one who for years hunted and killed before he. learned that the wild offered a more thrilling sport than slaughter - and the hope that what I have written may make others feel and understand that the greatest thrill of the hunt is not in killing, but in letting live. It is true that in the great open spaces one must kill to live; one must have meat and meat is life. But killing for meat is not the lust of slaughter. In this small way my animal books are the reparation I am now striving to make. Edge wear, fading toward edges, owner name ft endpaper.
