Synopsis

Through the pages of this book stalks the mightiest of the wilderness villains, a free-booter and a bully, a bandit who knows nothing of fear and who faces every animal and routs him, taking his kills and appropriating his hunting grounds. Kin to the weasel, Carcajou the wolverine has the weasel's terrible strength and cunning one hundred times multiplied.

So little is known of him that he has scarcely found his way in his haunts in the Colorado Rockies. Here he tells the vivid story of his deeds, weaving into a thrilling tale what happens when Carcajou, the unconquerable, "tangles" with a strong young Indian trapper and his pet grizzly named Mister Jim.
