A signed second impression of Tales of an Empty Cabin, written under the name 'Grey Owl' - the common name of Englishman Archibald Stansfeld Belaney (1888-1938). Belaney, who spent the latter half of his life purporting to be the son of a Scottish man and an Apache woman, achieved fame for his work promoting wilderness conservation, before being exposed as one of the first 'pretendians'.
