A pril woods, sensitive in every leafless twig to spring, stood in silence and dim nightfall around a lodge. Wherever a human dwelling is set in the wilderness, it becomes, by the very humility of its proportions, a prominent and aggressive point. But this lodge of bark and poles was the color of the woods, and nearly escaped intruding as mans work. A glow lighted the top, revealing the faint azure of smoke which rose straight upward in the cool, clear air. Such a habitation usually resounded at nightfall with Indian noises, especially if the days hunting had been good. The mossy rocks lying around were not more silent than the inmates of this lodge.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
