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. This story continues the journey from Curwood's earlier works, venturing into the life of Baree, an extraordinary half-wolf, half-dog lineage. The narrative unfolds against the backdrop of the Canadian wilderness, exploring themes of nature, survival, and identity as Baree navigates his existence after his mother, Gray Wolf, and father, Kazan, have established their perilous lives. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Baree during his early days in a dark cavern, nurtured by his blind mother, Gray Wolf. As Baree gradually opens his eyes to the world, his curiosity about his father Kazan begins to illuminate his life. The opening chapters depict Baree's initial struggles, including an encounter with the larger, intimidating forces of nature like bears and owls, which shape his understanding of the wilderness. As he discovers his instincts and strength, Baree embarks on his journey of growth amid the challenges and mysteries of the wild, signifying a transition from dependency to self-sufficiency.
