In "The Living Wilderness", Mr. Montgomery gives us a book that has been in the making for sixty years, most of which have been spent by the author in the wilderness areas of the United States observing and studying wildlife as few other living Americans have been privileged to do. Here is a personal acquaintanceship with wild animals as they live out their lives in their native habitat, with a detailed description of their manner of life, their habits, their individual traits, lovingly related by a peerless storyteller. This is no encyclopedic reference work designed to gather dust on the shelves of a library; it is a book to be read, loved, and treasured by nature lovers of every age, for in these pages Mr. Montgomery's wilderness friends live as Nature intended them to live, obeying the laws of the world that decree the strong and the cunning shall survive to maintain the balance of nature that ruled the wilderness for centuries before man stepped in with his guns, his traps, and his poisons. Here the reader is told where to look for existing wild animals today, how to observe them and learn their ways, how to understand and appreciate their individual traits, and how to respect their ways of life.

The reader first meets Rufus as a lone, wandering youngster who has just left his mother and now has to depend upon himself for food and shelter. Now that he is out on his own, Rufus begins living his life the only way he knows how, by hunting. He stakes out a territory and becomes a skillful hunter, preferring to make his meals of brush rabbits and fat mice. Rufus, like all other wild animals is forced to obey the laws of the wild that decree that the strong shall survive to maintain the balance of nature. 
As Rufus grows and matures he has number of exciting adventures including an encounter with a party of hunters and a pack of hounds, a flash flood, the raiding of a sheep camp, an avalanche, a struggle with a porcupine, a narrow excape from a pack of hungry gray wolves, and the search for a mate.
