John Watson is a narrative work likely written in the late 19th century.

The main character, a young lad from a family of poachers, delves into his experiences in the world of poaching, showcasing his love for the wilderness and his innate skills developed through years of working with the land. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist reminisces about his upbringing on the outskirts of a town known for its game, sharing experiences that shaped his identity as a poacher. He vividly describes his early encounters with nature, his deep connection to wildlife, and the essential knowledge that poachers must possess. Through a lens of affection for the natural world, he captures his fascination with the creatures around him, setting the stage for his adventurous escapades into poaching. The opening portion establishes the groundwork for a tale steeped in both admiration for the wilderness and the moral complexities that come with living outside the law.
