|  | Wild Animals I Have Known by Ernest Thompson Seton
An immediate success upon its first publication in 1898, Wild Animals I Have Known gave the animal story a new credibility and power as a literary genre. It remains Seton's best-known work Seton's portrayal of nature is a fascinating reflection of his time: Romanticism is tempered by scientific observation; sentimentality by Darwinian dispassion. Yet throughout these stories the individual animal, not the species, is transcendent. With 200 drawings, the NCL edition is an unabridged reprint of the complete original text.
