Part 1 Farley Mowat describes his experience studying wolves in northern Canada. He writes with humor and exaggeration. As you read, keep in mind both the serious intent of Farley’s message and how he makes his points. Here are examples from Chapter 1: He writes “When I was five years old I had still not given any indication – as most gifted children do well before that age – of where my future lay.” and means, “I was not a gifted child.” “My cousin, who…was some years older than myself, had already found his métier, which lay in the military field, and had amassed a formidable army of lead soldiers with which he was single-mindedly preparing himself to become a second Wellington. My loutish inability to play Napoleon exasperated him so much that he refused to have anything to do with me…” means that his cousin wanted him to play soldier but that Mowat was not willing to be always the loser at the battle of Waterloo. “Grandfather…could hear the word ‘whiskey’ if it were whispered in a room three stories removed from where he sat.” means that his grandfather liked to drink.
