Editorial Reviews

Review
...should appeal to wildlife history buffs and nature enthusiasts. (Robert Armstrong Minneapolis Star Tribune )

An enduring homage to the grizzly bear. (The Bookwatch )

An enduring homage to the grizzly bear, and ranges from their role in Native American myths; to their first scientific classification in 1815; to their near-extinction in the lower 48 states. Very highly edition to Wildlife Studies reference collections. (Bookwatch )
