Mutual kidnapping between the Maori and the English inhabitants in New Zealand had dated back to the 1760s. In 1869, After an English defeat in battle in the Taranaki forest, one more Maori boy, aged five, was captured and adopted by the Prime Minister, and educated to become a lawyer and an 'English gentleman'. As the story of this little Maori unfolded Peter Walker discovered that he had played a crucial role in New Zealand's history. More surprisingly as he followed Ngataua Omahuru (or little 'William Fox') out of the forest and into the drawing rooms of Wellington and London, he found himself on a personal journey which converged unexpectedly with tale he had uncovered.

A gripping narrative that sweeps the reader along as it seeks to uncover a mystery from the pages of New Zealand's troubled racial past. While doing some preliminary research for a travel book, Peter Walker came across a photograph taken in the mid-nineteenth century that haunted him. A Maori boy, at age five or six, is dressed up as a proper English gentleman, one hand hidden in the pocket of his trousers, the other placed squarely on what looks like a bible. How did such a young member of the native population of New Zealand wind up in such a place, why did he look so unhappy, and what happened next? With picture in hand and numerous questions in mind, Peter set off on his quest to solve the riddle of Ngatau Omahuru (or little 'William Fox'). It was soon revealed that this little boy, about whom perhaps ten lines had ever been published in history books, was kidnapped during a battle and later adopted by the Prime Minister himself to be trained as lawyer. As Walker uncovers more and more information-following the boy's footsteps out of the forest and into the high society drawing rooms of Wellington and London-it becomes clear that little William Fox played a crucial role in New Zealand's violent interracial history. As Walker travels in pursuit of the facts he finds himself on a personal journey as well, revisiting the scenes of his own childhood and quite unexpectedly coming across information that connects him personally to the historical material he finds, making The Fox Boy both travel writing and narrative history at their finest.

Once there was a Quechua folktale. It begins with a trickster fox's penis with a will of its own and ends with a daughter returning to parents who cannot recognize her until she recounts the uncanny adventures that have befallen her since she ran away from home. Following the strange twists and turnings of this tale, Catherine J. Allen weaves a narrative of Quechua storytelling and story listening that links these arts to others—fabric weaving, in particular—and thereby illuminates enduring Andean strategies for communicating deeply felt cultural values. In this masterful work of literary nonfiction, Allen draws out the connections between two prominent markers of ethnic identity in Andean nations—indigenous language and woven cloth—and makes a convincing case that the connection between language and cloth affects virtually all aspects of expressive culture, including the performing arts. As she explores how a skilled storyteller interweaves traditional tales and stock characters into new stories, just as a skilled weaver combines traditional motifs and colors into new patterns, she demonstrates how Andean storytelling and weaving both embody the same kinds of relationships, the same ideas about how opposites should meet up with each other. By identifying these pervasive patterns, Allen opens up the Quechua cultural world that unites story tellers and listeners, as listeners hear echoes and traces of other stories, layering over each other in a kind of aural palimpsest.

Deep within a large forest untouched by civilization lives a teenage boy. With no memory of a life outside his forest, he’s content to spend his days in solitude. Whittling his time away, he lives a simple life. A happy life. A free life. But when agonizing cries for help lead the boy to a small, injured fox, his peaceful life is over. The boy takes pity on the creature and brings her home to help her heal. But she becomes controlling of the boy, and he finds himself living entirely by her whims. Soon, he sees that his life is a somber reflection of what it once was. He knows that he must get away from the fox. But what he doesn’t realize is that she’s unwilling to let him go without a fight. This unique, poetic, and tragic tale gives readers a fresh and intriguing perspective on what can happen when a relationship becomes toxic…and dangerous.

Look at the Boy That Looks Like a Fox is for and about every child that's ever said, "Watch me do this!" It's about a boy who, like all of us, wants to be seen and known; a boy who, even though he is fast as a fox and as clever as a fox and so very much like a fox, is not actually a fox but only a boy with mischievous eyes. ...Or maybe that's just what a sly fox would want you to think.
