Summary: "Shasta of the Wolves" by Olaf Baker is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young boy named Shasta, who is adopted by a wolf family after being found alone in the woods. The book explores themes of identity, belonging, and survival as Shasta grows and learns to navigate both the human and animal worlds. The opening of the book introduces us to Shasta's unusual upbringing, beginning with the old she-wolf Nitka discovering the abandoned human child in the forest.
