Grey Owl

Grey Owl (September 18, 1888 - April 13, 1938) was born Archibald Belaney in England and migrated to Canada at the age of eighteen. Belaney adopted an Indian name and lifestyle and lived in the Canadian north as a trapper. In the latter years of his life he became a writer and a conservationist, and his books were wildly popular in Canada and Britain. He died suddenly in 1938, at the age of 50.
