James Oliver Curwood 
Wolf Hunters 
A Tale of Adventure in the Wilderness

Born in a rural community deep in the wilds of Michigan’s forested hills, James Oliver Curwood lived the life of an outdoorsman from a very young age. Over time, however, his love of the outdoors led him to adopt a more conservative stance, and he gradually emerged as an important early figure in the environmental movement. This evolution can be seen in The Wolf Hunters, which pairs classic outdoor action and adventure with a deeper philosophical take on the beauty of nature.
