Page "Tom Brown (naturalist)" Paragraph 2

In his books, Brown claims that from the age of seven, he and his childhood friend Rick were trained in tracking and wilderness survival by Rick's grandfather, a Lipan Apache elder called Stalking Wolf, who had relocated to the Pine Barrens wilderness near Toms River to be closer to Rick's family.

Stalking Wolf later died when Brown was 17 and Rick was killed in a horse riding accident in Europe shortly thereafter.
