O the sweet wildwood, with its incense of pine and of balsa...

The buggy had two occupants. One, a tall, awkward farm boy of perhaps sixteen, the other, a shy, shabby little girl of eight or nine yea...

Excerpt from Tenants of the Trees I have read all the writings of Clarence Hawkes and indorse them as honest and sincere work, which I found informing, and of dramatic interest, up to the publication of Mr. Hawkes' own story of his life, Hit ting the Dark Trail.

Here is the born nature-lover, the woodsman, the chronicler and the painter of mental pictures who for a few brief years looked into the pulsing heart of Nature, focused his mental camera upon her during a few brilliant days, and then suddenly, with a stroke like lightning, all the world became dark. T...
