Kazan [EPUB ebook] 

According to Wikipedia: ‘Kazan is the eponymous name of a 1914 novel about a tame wolf-dog hybrid named Kazan. It was written by James Oliver Curwood as the prequel to Baree, Son of Kazan… James Oliver Curwood, (June 12, 1878 – August 13, 1927), was an American novelist and conservationist. A great number of his works were turned into movies, several of which starred Nell Shipman as a brave and adventurous woman in the wilds of the north. Many films from Curwood’s writings were made during his lifetime, as well as after his passing through to the 1950s. In 1988 French director Jean-Jacques Annaud used his 1916 novel, The Grizzly King to make the film The Bear. Annaud’s success generated a renewed interest in Curwood’s stories that resulted in five more films being produced in 1994 and 1995.
