4.9/5 (15927 ratings)

Description:In this classic novel by Charles G. D. Roberts, we follow the adventures of the titular Red Fox as he grows up and takes on the Canadian wilderness. Curious and intelligent, Red Fox learns valuable life lessons and survival skills from his encounters with the animals around him, including the humans on local farms - skills which ultimately end up saving his life in situations where other foxes have perished.Roberts sets out to make Red Fox and the animal world around him more understandable and relatable to readers through the use of vivid, expressive detail and a thoroughly engaging story, and in doing so encourages awareness of the misunderstanding and cruelty which is sometimes involved in humanities relationship with wild animals.Excerpt:Chapter I."The price of his life"Two voices, a mellow, bell-like baying and an excited yelping, came in chorus upon the air of the April dawn. The musical and irregularly blended cadence, now swelling, now diminishing, seemed a fit accompaniment to the tender, thin-washed colouring of the landscape which lay spread out under the gray and lilac lights of approaching sunrise. The level country, of mixed woodland and backwoods farm, still showed a few white patches here and there where the snow lingered in the deep hollows; but all over the long, wide southward-facing slope of the uplands, with their rough woods broken by occasional half-cleared, hillocky pastures, the spring was more advanced. Faint green films were beginning to show on the birch and poplar thickets, and over the pasture hillocks; and every maple hung forth a rosy veil that seemed to imitate the flush of morning.[...]We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
