Bambi: A Life in the Woods was written by Austrian writer Felix Salten and first published in 1929. It is the story of Bambi, a roe deer, whose wide-eyed curiosity leads him to explore all the wonders of the forest. He is enchanted by the songs, scents, and all the diverse creatures who live in the trees alongside him. But within these moments of discovery lies the ever-present danger of predators—one predator in particular: man.

Over the course of 47 years, Victorian writer Margaret Oliphant produced 120 novels, biographies, and histories, as well as hundreds of essays and book reviews. "She was of an intellect so alert," wrote J. M. Barrie, "that one wondered if she ever fell asleep." Widowed young, she was the sole support of her children and her nieces, whom her brother had abandoned: a powerful impetus for her prodigious output. The two novels included here reflect the difficulties that Victorian wives had when their lives took unexpected turns.
