A year in the life of a company of people who settle in the forest, from early spring to the departure of the birds, with days named for the nicknames of its members, such as the Swift Panther, the Watchful Crane and the Cunning Wolverine. Rodziewiczówna's novel of 1920 is a hymn to the forest and to a life close to the land. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
