These true stories of big-game hunting in the West are written for young people, especially for young hunters. The tales are told wholly from the sportsman’s point of view and over-sympathetic little readers of the modern animal story may not enjoy these triumphant hunts which meant death to: the wapiti or round horned elk, a cattle-killing bear, a Christmas buck, the timber-wolf, the prong-buck, or the white goat. The volume closes with some sound advice upon ranching.
“It is eminently suited for its purpose, as its tone is sportsmanlike and the descriptions are in well-chosen words.”
