Mowat first visited the area when he was 15 and made friends with the "half wild and suitably ragged children at the Dundurn Indian Reserve." Years later, upon his return he hired a pilot to fly him into a remote lake w here he found a half hidden cabin.

He dcscrilcs the individuals and gives details of each one's place and responsibilities in their polygamous society. His word pictures of the great deer herd going south and returning north are exciting.
