"Alone in the Wilderness" - Joseph Knowles
Turned out to be the original "Naked and Afraid" except he didn't have a chick along...
Written in 1913. I enjoyed reading it although I had some reservations about him killing the deer with his bare hands. Not doubting the authenticity, but I put my hands on a live deer in my strapping youth and learned that they are much stronger than I was and snapping its neck wold be quite a feat.
Also, September and October in Maine would be a tad chilly for me to be running around in the rain necked.
I did enjoy reading it though.
