 TRUE THRILLING TALES

Adrift on an Ice-Pan By WILFRED T. GRENFELL

“The adventure, as romantic as anything in fiction, is narrated with great charm and with characteristic modesty. The doctor’s sensations when he found himself face to face with death are  of singular interest, and his description of the conduct of his  faithful dogs is pathetic in the extreme. It is a book to warm one’s heart.”—Boston Globe.

Stickeen: The Story of a Dog By JOHN MUIR

“There have been no end of dog stories of power and interest, but this is not a work of fiction; it is the interested study and  appreciation of a strange little animal, by one who is not inclined  to be sentimental in his views. … The record is told with such simplicity and force that it may easily become a classic among  books dealing with nature studies.”—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
