Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - Since the publication of my two animal books Kazan the Wolf Dog and The Grizzly King I have received so many hundreds of letters from friends of wild animal life all of which were more or less of an inquiring nature that I have been encouraged to incorporate in this preface of the third of my series - Baree Son of Kazan - something more of my desire and hope in writing of wild life and something of the foundation of fact whereupon this and its companion books have been written. I have always disliked the preaching of sermons in the pages of romance. It is like placing a halter about an unsuspecting reader's neck and dragging him into paths for which he may have no liking. But if fact and truth produce in the reader's mind a message for himself then a work has been done. That is what I hope for in my nature books. The American people are not and never have been lovers of wild life. As a nation we have gone after Nature with a gun.
