- Dedication
- This book is dedicated to a lifelong friend whose shadow has fallen across many of my books, this one in particular. While he was creating a rangy, redheaded detective who has since become world famous, I settled for a small... (show all)er audience, readers who might not feel at home on the streets and boulevards of Miami. If you have one friend like him, you are successful beyond measure.
- First words
- Along the North Dakota creek I met a tribe that has ever since interested me: the weasel family.
Foreword: Some of the wild animals that roamed the plains and mountains of this country when our forefathers landed and started building a nation have vanished, unable to cope with the white man and his guns and hunting dogs,...
