Wolves Don't Bite

Curran, James W. Sault Ste. Marie, Canada: The Sault Daily Star. 1940.

8vo., xiv, (2), 255, (1) publisher's ad. Frontis plus full page black and white captioned sketches by Jimmy Frise. Four double-sided plates of photographs. Red cloth lettered in black to front cover and spine. Pale blue dust jacket printed in black and red.

Previous owner's signature to front free endpaper. Very minor tone to endpapers and leaf edges. Dust jacket has minor loss to head of spine, less so to tail, and small chip to bottom front edge. The pale blue paper jacket has toned to brown on spine and, to a lesser extent, along folds. Otherwise a very presentable copy of a now very scarce title.

These "joyous tales of Algoma" in northern Ontario, centre around the Algoma wolf and life in the northern wilderness. They are recounted by the editor of "The Sault Daily Star", in which newspaper many of them first appeared. They include, alongside many amusing episodes, much factual background on the Algoma wolf.
