Publisher's Synopsis

Baree Son of Kazan is an adventure novel written by James Oliver Curwood. The book follows the journey of Baree, a wolf-dog hybrid, as he navigates the Canadian wilderness and tries to find his place in the world. Born to a wolf mother and a dog father, Baree is rejected by both species and must learn to survive on his own. Along the way, he meets a variety of creatures, including a lynx, a bear, and a human named Nepeese, who becomes his companion. As Baree grows older, he begins to question his identity and struggles to reconcile his wolf and dog instincts. The novel explores themes of nature, identity, and the relationship between humans and animals. It is a classic adventure story that will appeal to readers of all ages.Exactly wherein lay Baree's fears it would be difficult to say--but surely it was not because of Nepeese. The Willow had chased him hard. She had flung herself upon him. He had felt the clutch of her hands and the smother of her soft hair, and yet of her he was not afraid! If he stopped now and then in his flight and looked back, it was to see if Nepeese was following. He would not have run hard from her--alone. Her eyes and voice and hands had set something stirring in him; he was filled with a greater yearning and a greater loneliness now. And that night he dreamed troubled dreams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
