Baree, Son of Kazan is the eponymous name of a 1917 novel about a wild wolfling pup named Baree. It was written by James Oliver Curwood as the sequel to Kazan.

Plot

Baree, Son of Kazan is a story about a wild wolfdog pup sired by Kazan (1/4 wolf, 3/4 dog) and born of blind Greywolf (pure wolf). This story is about Baree's survival after being separated from his parents as a young pup. He eventually finds himself in the care of Nepeese and her father Pierrot, a trapper.[1] He bonds with Nepeese, and the story goes from there. James Oliver Curwood took the well used "a boy and his dog" formula, and created a great adventure story about a girl and her dog.[2] A successful formula featuring a strong heroine, rather than a male hero, that he used in many of his stories.

Films

The novel was filmed as Baree, Son of Kazan (1918) starring Nell Shipman as Nepeese. In 1925 David Smith remade the same story with Anita Stewart.
