This is a story of an adventure involving a young man, his dog, and two friends. Together they wander through the Western prairies on a mission to make peace between the “pale-faces” and the “Red men”. They face many perils and become heroes many times over. This wonderful story takes the characters (and the reader) on an action-packed journey through the Western prairies during the times when relations between the white man and the Natives were not always peaceful.

"A prairie-hen," remarked Joe, as Crusoe laid the
bird at Dick's feet; "capital for supper."

"Ah! dat chien is superb! goot dog. Come here, I
vill clap you."

But Crusoe refused to be caressed. Meanwhile, Joe
and Dick formed a sort of beehive-looking hut by
bending down the stems of a tall bush and thrusting
their points into the ground. Over this they threw the
largest buffalo robe, and placed another on the ground

up at the sky, which was now of a uniform watery gray,
while black clouds drove athwart it. The rain was
pouring in torrents, and the wind began to sweep it in
broad sheets over the plains, and under their slight covering,
so that in a short time they were wet to the skin.
The horses stood meekly beside them, with their tails
and heads equally pendulous; and Crusoe sat before his
master, looking at him with an expression that seemed
to say, "Couldn't you put a stop to this if you were to
try?"

"This'll never do. I'll try to git up a fire," said
Dick, jumping up in desperation.

"Ye may save yerself the trouble," remarked Joe
dryly--at least as dryly as was possible in the circumstances.

However, Dick did try, but he failed signally. Everything

were soaked. The coverings were slobbery, the skins
they sat on were slobbery, the earth it

The Dog Crusoe is a story of pioneers versus the wilderness and the savages, published in 1906. The dog in it is a Newfoundland, which is my favorite breed. As far as dog book goes, there are some of the best dog moments in this book and I will share a few of them in this review.

I read this book as a 9 - or 10-year old in Ireland, and loved it. I lent it to a friend, and then forgot whom I'd lent it to. I always regretted having lost it, as to me at the time it was a mesmerising and fantastic journey into life on the Western Plains, with vivid descriptions of cowboys, farme

This was a great book of adventures. Traveling away from home for the first time, visiting different Indian tribes, some friendly, some not so friendly and some outright hostile. Also I liked the description of the nature around and the encounters of the different animals, especially the first encou
