Apostate Englishman: Grey Owl the Writer and the Myths - Braz, Albert

As New; This book is the first comprehensive study of Grey Owl's cultural and political image in light of his own writings. This intensive examination of the writings of Grey Owl is a welcome addition to our knowledge of one of Canada's most popular writers of the 1930s and redresses an imbalance. To date, the English-born Archie Belaney's life story has received in depth examination, but his books and articles have been largely ignored. Readers will discover many new aspects of Grey Owl's personality and character through a new understanding of his written words. This original and well-written study reappraises his contributions as a conservationist and nature writer.
