“The volume is most entertaining and wholesome. It is filled with the atmosphere of the wide open outdoors and it ought to appeal to everybody who has a drop of red blood in his veins.”
—Brooklyn Times.
“All the beauty and glory of life in the open permeate this book. It is a book for live boys, for active men, for every Diana spirit chained to domestic or professional task, for all Americans keen for adventure, and zestful for nature truths.... This is a genuine hunter-naturalist’s narrative. Its historical and scientific facts are savored with the spice of the camp-fire story-teller’s style.”
—Philadelphia Public Ledger.
“This book should grace the library of every true American.”
—Portland (Oregon) Evening Telegram.
