About this book

Rolf Kittering is a boy of the early 1800s who learns woodcraft with a dog named Skookum, and Ernest Thompson Seton follows him through hunting, trapping, canoeing and winter camps. Chapters cover the Upper Hudson, a beaver pond, an otter slide, snowshoes, a line of traps and a silver fox. Later chapter titles reach the War of 1812, with Ogdensburg, Plattsburg and a scouting mission. Seton's preface says he meant to show what shaped young Americans of a century earlier into citizens and, later, heroes.
