Book Description
Excerpt from The Trail of the Elk This is the story of a wizard elk Rauten, as people called him. He was a human being in animal guise. The story begins in Re Valley, which lies like a yawning gap between mountains, long and flat with borders of forests so dark that they look as though part of the blackness of night lingered in them. A river moves sluggishly along the bottom of the valley, making its way slowly and carefully between stretches of light-red sand. It runs north wards, a rare thing in Norway.

Of Captain Pipe, Big Buffalo and certain of the others, I have already told you something; -but you have yet to hear of lone-elk, the Seneca, - lone-elk, the outcast from the vil lages of his people, - bold and strong yet crafty, deceitful, treacherous, - and still, withal as ambitious and as vain an Indian as ever trod the long-ago forest fastnesses.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Long Trail My father had done much hunting with many and varied friends. I have often heard him say of some one whom I had thought an ideal hunting companion: He's a good fellow, but he was always fishing about in the pot for the best piece of meat, and if there was but one partridge shot, he would try to roast it for himself. If there was any delicacy he wanted more than his share. Things assume such dif ferent proportions in the wilds; after two months living on palm-tree t0ps and mon keys, a ten-cent can of condensed milk bought for three dollars from a rubber ex plorer far exceeds in value the greatest delicacy of the season to the ordinary citi zen who has a varied and sufficient menu at his command every day in the year.

Book Description
Excerpt from Shepherds of the Wild The mouth of the canyon was darkened with shadows when the bull elk came stealing down the brown trail through the dusky thicket. In all this mountain realm, a land where the wild things of the forest still held sway, there was no creature of more majestic bearing or noble beauty. He was full-grown; his great antlers swept back over his powerful shoulders; and it was evident from his carriage that he had no fear of such enemies as might be lurking in the gloomy canyon. For it was known far through the forest that even the great puma or the terrible grizzly, unless they had the advantage of ambush, treated Spread Horn with considerable respect.

Excerpt from Letters on an Elk Hunt: Illustrated One of them interested me especially. She was a small person; I could n't decide whether she was a child or a woman. I kept thinking her homely, and then when she spoke I for got everything but the music of her voice, it was so restful, so rich and mellow in tone, and she seemed so small for such a splen did voice. Somehow I kept expecting her to squeak like a mouse, but every word she spoke charmed me.' Before the meal was over it came out that she was the dish-washer. All the rest of the help had finished their work for the day, but she, of course, had to wash what dishes we had been using. The rest went their ways; and as our own tardiness had belated her, I offered to help her to carry out the dishes. It was the work of only a moment to dry them, so I did that. She was so small that she had to stand on a box in order to be comfortable while she washed the cups and plates. The sink and drain-board were made for real folks. I have to use this box to stand on.
