Jim Kjelgaard (1910-1959) was born in New York City. He was still in the pre-school age when his father decided to move the family to the Pennsylvania mountains. There young Jim grew up among some of the best hunting and fishing in the United States. He commented: "If I had pursued my scholastic duties as diligently as I did deer, trout, grouse, squirrel, etc., I might have had better report cards!" He worked at various jobs — trapper, teamster, guide, surveyor, factory worker and laborer. When he was in his late twenties, he decided to become a full-time writer, eventually publishing hundreds of short stories and articles and quite a few books for young people. He is most famous for his dog book, "Big Red." This volume includes:
