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.

Thousands of readers, young and old, are acquainted with Rutherford G. Montgomery's narratives of the strong men and wild animals that live in the Western mountain country. He has published over eight short stories and serials in various magazines, and many books in addition to CARCAJOU.
Montgomery spent his boyhood on ranches in North Dakota and Montana. At college he studied law, history, and English; and when the World War broke out he enlisted as a machine gunner in the United States Army Air Corps, spent a year and a half in the service.
