Farley Mowat was a celebrated Canadian writer and environmentalist known for his internationally acclaimed works, which have been translated into 52 languages and sold over 17 million copies. He gained fame for his writings on the Canadian north, notably for books such as People of the Deer and Never Cry Wolf, the latter of which was made into a film. While Mowat’s advocacy for environmental causes received widespread praise, he also faced criticism for confessing to taking liberties with facts in his writing. Despite this controversy, his work was admired for its vivid imagery and strong convictions.
