BRAZ, Albert. Apostate Englishman. Grey Owl the writer and the myths. Winnipeg, University of Manitoba Press, 2015. 190 p.

Resumo

Albert Braz, who is a Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Alberta, has presented us with a thoroughly comprehensive look into a subject formerly quite well explored, Grey Owl´s life and writings and his role in Canadian conservationism. But the title, Apostate Englishman, reveals the underlining concern of the author with the damages to Grey Owl´s reputation both as conservationist and as writer, after his death, when it is revealed, or confirmed, that Grey Owl was in fact the Englishman Archie Belaney.
