Description

One of Canada's most popular and controversial authors, Farley Mowat has written novels, short stories, nonfiction, screenplays, and children's literature. John Orange's detailed biography of Mowat follows this “anti-authoritarian, intensely nationalistic, environmentally aware, and passionately romantic” writer's life from his early childhood years to the present day, offering a fascinating look at a man, who, throughout his tireless efforts to better a degenerating world, has managed to maintain a keen sense of humor and a deep sense of compassion.
