Secret of the Woods

Secret of the Woods is a classic nature/wildlife study by William J. Long that examines the lives of woodland creatures such as mouse, otter, kingfisher, red squirrel, partridge, deer, and many others. We would not feel comfortable if a big barbarian came into our quiet home, broke the door down, whacked his war-club on the furniture, and whooped his battle yell. We could hardly be natural under the circumstances. Our true dispositions would hide themselves. We might even vacate the house bodily. Just so Wood Folk. Only as you copy their ways can you expect to share their life and their secrets.
