Yellow Eyes (Caxton Classics)

Description:

***Far back in the wildest of the mountain country hides Yellow Eyes, the great mountain lion, the most cunning and powerful of his hunted kind. Beautiful and cruel, like all big cats, Yellow Eyes and his mate, The Golden One, are tawny shadows lurking in the forest.*** **Rutherford Montgomery is known for his honesty in the portrayal of animal life. In his stories animals are animals, not beasts playing the parts of human beings in a false drama of the wilderness.** The fictional ***story of a young, orphaned mountain lion cub, growing up alone***, presumably in or around the Rocky Mountains. The cub soon learns how to hunt, and how to survive in the rugged wilderness, where he encounters not only larger and more aggressive animals, but his worst enemy of all, the hunter and his fearsome pack of dogs. ***A really wonderful story, for young and old alike...***
