The Green Leaf: A Tibute to Grey Owl - Dickson, Lovat
Clean, tight, unmarked; dust jacket in permanent plastic cover; corner of ffep cut out; name and place on ffep; green cloth covers with white titles; otherwise minimal wear; This book tells the story of the last months of Grey Owl's life, recording in many pictures the passing of a brave spirit. But it does more than mourn him: it vindicates him. The Green Leaf contains selections from Grey Owl's famous books, illustrating his philosophy and character. It contains a number of Grey Owl's letters, which have been selected for publication by his friend and publisher, Lovat Dickson; and finally it contains his famous Farewell to the Children of the British Isles. The Green Leaf is a tribute to the memory of a great man who, though he called himself "a poor frightened savage," yet taught the world anew the virtues of humanitarianism and tolerance.
