About the author

William J. Long (1857–1952) was an American writer, naturalist, and minister who lived and worked in Stamford, Connecticut. He spent his summers in the wilderness of Maine and Nova Scotia, and his experiences there were the basis for his many books, which include Ways of Wood Folk, Wilderness Ways, Wood-Folk Comedies, Northern Trails, and Wood Folk at School.

Bobbie Frohman, a third generation Californian, was raised in a large extended family, the niece of cowboys. Early on she developed a deep love of animals, training her dogs to perform with her at dog shows, and as a competitive barrel racer with her beloved horse, Lucky.
