When the wounded bear he faced on a mountain ledge that day turned aside, James Curwood felt that he had been spared. From this encounter he became an avid conservationist. He wrote relentlessly—magazine stories and books and then for the new medium of motion pictures. Like many authors of his time, he was actively involved in movie-making until the plight of the forests and wildlife in his home state of Michigan turned his energies toward conservation.
A man ahead of his time, and quickly forgotten after his death in 1927, his gift of himself to his readers and to nature has finally come to be appreciated again two generations later.

reviewed James Oliver Curwood on January 25, 2018 James Oliver Curwood
I continue to think that anyone who loves poetry or the world of the mind (to which academia is related but not representative) ought to read Kenner. He, as one professor of Modern Poetry put it, "must have been something." It is a combination of utterly clear thinking expressed in an argumentative prose that does not drag and, while it makes no patronizing concessions to the reader, neither does it aim above the reader's head to deliberately obfuscate (as one feels a great number of people with "Ph.D" after their names tend to do). It is, as Poe might put it, "that monstrum horrendum," the scholarly argument that one enjoys reading. Check it out, and if you don't respect Pound (and the whole theory of the academy) more by the time you're done, you get a full refund on this review.
