註釋William Long was a Congregational minister and naturalist living in Connecticut. Long has produced an important collection of writings and poetry. Secrets of the Woods as the title implies is a collection centering on the relationship of nature and the woods. Many of his early works were issued in editions for use in schools. Long was the center of controversy during the Presidential term of Teddy Roosevelt. Some of his stories such as a fox escaping hunters by riding on the backs of sheep put his work in question. Even though some of his theories have been proven to be incorrect his writings are still worth reading.
