阿纳哈雷奥（1906-1985）是莫霍克作家、环保主义者和活动家。她也是灰猫头鹰（Grey Owl，又名阿尔奇·贝拉尼）的妻子。贝拉尼是国际知名作家和演说家，自称是苏格兰人和阿帕奇人后裔，但其真正的英国白人血统直到去世后才为人所知。《鹿皮中的魔鬼》是阿纳哈里奥的自传，包括她与灰猫头鹰的婚姻。她用生动的散文描述了他们在丛林中的广泛旅行，以及他们在环境和野生动物保护方面的工作。在这里，我们看到了一位非凡的莫霍克女性的日常生活，她的独立性、才智和道德信念直接影响了灰猫头鹰从捕猎者向环保主义者的转变。尽管《鹿皮中的魔鬼》第一次出版于1972年，但它对土著、文化和土地的观察直接面向当代观众。《鹿皮中的魔鬼》是《第一声音，第一文本》系列的第一本书。新版包括阿纳哈里奥的女儿凯瑟琳·斯瓦蒂尔和安妮·盖斯凯尔的前言，苏菲·麦考尔的后记，并向读者介绍了加拿大最有才华的土著作家之一的一篇非常重要但基本上被遗忘的文章。
Devil in Deerskins: My Life with Grey Owl
Anahareo (1906-1985) was a Mohawk writer, environmentalist, and activist. She was also the wife of Grey Owl, aka Archie Belaney, the internationally celebrated writer and speaker who claimed to be of Scottish and Apache descent, but whose true ancestry as a white Englishman only became known after his death. Devil in Deerskins is Anahareo’s autobiography up to and including her marriage to Grey Owl. In vivid prose she captures their extensive travels through the bush and their work towards environmental and wildlife protection. Here we see the daily life of an extraordinary Mohawk woman whose independence, intellect and moral conviction had direct influence on Grey Owl’s conversion from trapper to conservationist. Though first published in 1972, Devil in Deerskins’s observations on indigeneity, culture, and land speak directly to contemporary audiences. Devil in Deerskins is the first book in the First Voices, First Texts series. This new edition includes forewords by Anahareo’s daughters, Katherine Swartile and Anne Gaskell, an afterword by Sophie McCall, and reintroduces readers to a very important but largely forgotten text by one of Canada’s most talented Aboriginal writers.
