About this book

Northern Trails, Book I is a volume by William J. Long. The preface recalls the author's earlier statement that, with the solitary exception of the salmon's life in the sea after he vanishes from human sight, every incident recorded here is founded squarely upon personal and accurate observation of animal life and habits. The preface says that a strenuous public attack has been made upon the wolf story in this volume by two men claiming to speak with authority.

The author, William J. Long, writes that years ago he found a deer just killed in the snow and beside him the fresh tracks of a big wolf. The author says he quotes the sworn statements of three other eyewitnesses, the first of whom is superintendent of the Algonquin National Park. A scene in the text has a caribou standing at the edge of the wood, not twenty feet away, pointing his ears at the children.
