Lives of the Hunted (Annotated)

Two lambs, scarcely born, are already beyond a hunter's reach. A coyote learns from every narrow escape. A small dog discovers what it means to stand his ground. In eight stories, Ernest Thompson Seton follows animals whose lives depend on the exact use of strength, memory, and the country around them. From Krag's mountain heights to a sparrow's street, *Lives of the Hunted* makes room for grandeur, mishap, devotion, and the hard education of experience. Johnny Bear, the mother teal, Chink, and Tito belong to a company whose smallest members can command the closest attention. Seton's original introductory note explains how observation and imagination meet in their histories. This AMBER SERIES edition from AETERNUS presents the English collection of 1901 with new publisher illustrations, an author portrait, a glossary, and an afterword. The eight stories retain their distinct voices and their changing scale. Each opens another view of a world in which staying alive is an accomplishment with a history.
