Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Waiting in the Wilderness This grass plot was a wilderness meeting place for wild folks. -half a dozen wild-life trails crossed it or terminated in it. There were numberless air routes to and through it traversed by bats, butterflies, and birds. Often the wild life ceased to search for food, played their primitive games with enthusiasm, and sometimes they had battles or courtships. Often I came back to this place to note the Changes in the flowers or the growth of the birds in the neighbourhood nests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Out of the Wilderness The man was tall and stalwart. His head, small, round and closely shorn, sat literally on his broad, high shoulders, giving his whole figure the appearance of a colossal clothes-pin. There was no mingled blood of the races in his veins. He was black, actually black; but a kinder and more agreeable face one rarely sees, be the complexion what it may. His wife was small and frail, about forty years old. In any other company she might have been called black but comely, but beside him her color faded, and she was only a little brown woman. Her features were not cast in the Guinea mould. Her nose was small and straight, and her thin lips, which only half hid two rows of small, white teeth, were fixed in a sad smile. Her eyes were soft and kind, and her low voice had a plaintive tone which at once won the hearts of the ladies. The strangers were offered seats, and invited to wait for the minister's return; but they hesitated, evidently afraid of using too much freedom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alone in the Wilderness On the Saturday afternoon of October fourth, nineteen hundred and thirteen, just at the time when sunshine marked the end of two days' heavy rain, I emerged from the Canadian for est on the shores of Lake Megantic, having lived the life of a primitive man for two months in the wilderness of northern Maine. I was tanned to the color of an Indian. I had a matted beard, and long, matted hair. I was scratched from head to foot by briers and underbrush.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War-Path: A Narrative of Adventures in the Wilderness A dense fog hung over the placid surface of the Delaware River, and enveloped in its folds many of the ancient buildings of Burlington, then the capital of the colony of New Jersey. The stately mansion of the British governor, William Franklin, situated on the beautiful green bank so much admired at the present day, was wrapped in the vapour, and, as was often said of its occupant, seemed lost in a mist. Even the haunted tree in front of the governor's residence - the witches' sycamore - was reported by fearful pedestrians to have vanished, or at least to have become invisible. Yet, notwithstanding the gloom which oppressed the atmosphere, a most extraordinary sound of hilarity burst from the hall of one of the dwellings on the principal street running at right angles with the river. The house from which the sound proceeded was the habitation of a solemn Quaker. The hall-door was open, and within, erect as a young man of thirty-five, stood Thomas Schooley, in his sixtieth year, surrounded by several of his friends, of about the same age and stature, all being tall and athletic, and habited alike, as they were all Quakers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wilderness Ways Indeed, it is hardly necessary for genuine interest to give human traits to the beasts. Any animal is inter esting enough as an animal, and has character enough of his own, without borrowing anything from man - as one may easily find out by watching long enough. Most wild creatures have but small measure of gentleness in them, and that only by instinct and at short stated sea sons. Hence I have given both sides and both kinds, the shadows and lights, the savagery as well as the gentleness of the wilderness creatures. It were pleasanter, to be sure, especially when you have been deeply touched by some exquisite bit of animal devo tion, to let it go at that, and to carry with you henceforth an ideal creature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures in the Wilderness On page 42 of this work the author commends the Keeseville route to parties entering the wilderness from Lake Champlain. Since its publication, information has reached him of such a nature as to induce the recommendation of the Plattsburg route as well. The latter is comparatively an easy route. From Plattsburg cars run to Point of Rocks (or Ausable Forks), intersecting the Keeseville road, and saving some sixteen miles of unpleasant staging from Port Kent. At Fouquet's Hotel, Plattsburg, every facility for rest and preparation can be had. At Point of Rock parties can arrange to meet their means of conveyance to Martin's, Smith's, Bartlett's, and other houses at St. Regis. Invalids, or persons not in robust health, who may venture upon this trip, will find Plattsburg a pleasant and convenient place for recuperation before cutting loose from all the amenities of civilization. The author would particularly advise all parties, before starting, to engage by letter conveyance from Point of Rocks to their destination.

Download or read book Arctic Village written by Robert Marshall and published by Classic Reprint Series. This book was released on 1991 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic is an original work of literature by one of America's foremost conservationists and is an account of the people of the north, both Native and white, who give Alaska its special human flavor. First published over fifty years ago, the book is still a favorite among old-time Alaskans and, over the years, has prompted numerous readers to pack up and move to Alaska. The richness of statistical coverage in this book, and Marshall's careful descriptions of the characters he met, provide readers with a window to the world of 1930 and a nearly complete record of the Koyukuk civilization as he saw it. Readers learn what the people of Wiseman thought about sex, religion, politics, and the myriad of ways they found to cope with and enjoy life in a wilderness community.
