Book Reviews of Snow Walker (The Farley Mowat Series)Book Review: The demise of a people Summary: 5 Stars
Mowat is, once again, critical of government agencies and organizations in the mandatory relocation of natives to an inhospitable location and failure to monitor the results of the move. Creates a better understanding of how a group of people become extinct. A difficult survival made more difficult!
Book Review: Lot of fiction in this compilation... Summary: 3 Stars
I am a big fan of Farley Mowat and my favorite works of his are definitely his non-fiction: People of the Deer and The Serpent's Coil come to mind. I was hoping for more non-fiction, but most of The Snow Walker is fiction...nicely done fiction but...I buy Mowat for his true accounts so I have to say a slogged through the book but it was not my favorite. I am enjoying one of his more recent works at present Bay of Spirits.
Anyway, if you are looking for a gripping true account I would buy one of his other books.
