About This Item
Boston, MA: Seal, 1980. Mass Market Paperback. Good. Galdone, Paul. Illustrated by Paul Galdone; Clean, tight, unmarked; age tanned; break between pp55/56; creasing to spine; otherwise light general wear; Mowat's best-loved book tells the splendidly entertaining story of his boyhood on the Canadian prairies. Mutt's pedigree was uncertain, but his madness was indisputable. He climbed trees and ladders, rode passenger in an open car wearing goggles and displayed hunting skills that bordered on sheer genius. He was a marvelous dog, worthy of an unusual boy growing up in a raw, untamed wilderness.

He is the bestselling author of forty-seven books, which have been published in more than twenty languages in more than sixty countries.
