Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Baree, Son of Kazan" by James Oliver Curwood is a novel written in the early 20th century that continues the themes of animal life and survival established in Curwood's previous works, "Kazan, the Wolf Dog" and "The Grizzly King." The story revolves around Baree, the offspring of Kazan (a half-wolf, half-dog) and Gray Wolf, as he navigates the challenges of the wilderness, explores his identity, and evolves into a skilled hunter. The opening of the novel introduces Baree's early days in a dark windfall, where he hears and feels the world around him but knows nothing of light or his own lineage. As he grows, he discovers his father, Kazan, and learns about the wild through his mother's nurturing and the dangers of their environment. The narrative vividly depicts Baree's experiences of learning to navigate the complexities of life, including his first encounter with the sun and his eventual foray into independence as he begins to understand his instinctual drive as both wolf and dog. This section sets the tone for an adventurous journey that intertwines themes of nature, instincts, and the bond with his parents.
