Wild Animals at Home
About this book
This vintage book contains a delightful account of Ernest Thompson Seton's experiences in Yellowstone Park - and the various animals that he encountered during his excursions. Full of delicate descriptions, interesting information, and humorous anecdotes, this volume is highly recommended for those with a love of the great outdoors, and would make for a great addition to collections of hunting literature. Contents include: "The Cute Coyote", "The Pride-Dog and His Kin", "Famous Fur-Bearers", "Horns and Hoofs and Legs of Speed", "Bats in the Devil's Kitchen", "The Well-Meaning Skunk", "The Badger", "The Squirrel and his Jerky-tail Brothers", "The Rabbits and Their Habits", etcetera. Ernest Thompson Seton (1860 - 1946) was a British artist, author, and one of the founders of the 'Boy Scouts of America'. Many vintage texts such as this, especially those dating back to the 1900s and before, are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
