Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Three Months Among the Moose: "A Winter's Tale" Of the Northern Wilds of Canada
One morning my Doctor, Who is as good a fellow as ever lived, and my fast friend as well as medical adviser, called to see me. His salutation was, F - unless you give up work, and take some months of perfect relaxation and entire change of scene, you will be a dead man in six months, as sure as you were born.
Startling as this announcement sounded I was in some measure prepared for it.
For some years, week in and week out, with the exception of an occasional run to the seaside, I had been doing the work of two men. There had been a constant and heavy strain upon both my mental and physical energy. I hardly knew what it was to have an hour in the week in which I had not an Engagement or some professional work to attend to.
For some time back I was sensible that my health was breaking, my nervous system was shaken, I was always listless and fagged, and I felt myself losing interest in life and work.
