From the Back Cover:
From his boyhood days through his adulthood as a trapper, guide, naturalist, and outdoorsman, Andy Russell lived a lifestyle that would be near-impossible today. Growing up in the Northern Rockies in a "land of boots and saddles, guns and fishing rods, and the smell of pines and grass," he observed the ways of animals wild and tame, braved rugged mountaintops and freezing rivers. He forged friendships with the local Indians and with the "remittance men," second sons of British aristocracy who left their stamp on the new country with ready cash and a zest for high living. Here are thrilling and humorous tales of breaking horses, hunting bears, and living proud and free, told in a naturally eloquent voice. (51/2 X 81/4, 320 pages, b&w photos)

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: As New. First Canadian Edition, First Printing. Author was noted writer on matters of conservation and a filmaker. It is said that he didn't take guns when making a film on grizzly bears because he felt that guns changed the relationship between man and bear and defeated the purpose of filming the bear in a natural habitat. He also felt that a gun makes a person arrogant and that is noticeable by the bear. Russell received the Order of Canada in 1977 . Premier Ralph Klein was a eulogist at Russell's funeral in 2005. Book recounts his experiences in pioneer Alberta. 298 pp. Title was previously published by Knopf (New York) in 1970. Bookseller's Inventory # 154580. Seller Inventory # 004580
