About this title

Synopsis

An anthology in celebration of wolves includes writings by wolf experts, along with poetry, fables, legends, and myths from cultures around the world.

Reviews

This handsome new book presents the wolf in fact, fiction, legend, folklore, and art, pairing outstanding color photographs and art reproductions with excerpts from writings about wolves. The photos are the work of well-known nature and outdoor photographers, and the writings include observations by field biologists, writings by people who have lived intimately with wolf packs, and fiction, poetry, and folk legends from many lands. This book has much to teach about the habits and unique social structure of wolves and also raises important questions about the issue of the preservation of the wolf (considered an endangered species since 1973) and its reintroduction to former habitats. This volume will be hailed by wolf enthusiasts and is recommended wherever interest warrants.ADeborah Emerson, Monroe Community Coll. Lib., Rochester, NY
