Wilderness Ways

Deeper into the wild this time. In this follow-up to Ways of Wood Folk, William J. Long travels the far northern forests to watch moose in misty lakes, wolves on winter trails, salmon-hunting bears, and birds of the great silences. His sketches from the 1890s blend patient observation with a storyteller's heart, always respecting the animals as fellow travelers rather than trophies. For anyone who feels the pull of remote places, this is an invitation to follow. Paddle out past the last cabin and see what the wilderness is doing when no one watches.
