| Description: |
An illustrated collection of writing about wolves, including the pioneering observations of field biologists, intimate portraits by people who have lived among wolves, Native American legends, fiction, poetry, and myths and fables from many lands. The illustrations include colour photographs, together with wolf images from the visual arts. |
| Synopsis: |
Wolves once reigned as the premier predators in their range. This is an illustrated celebration of a powerful, intelligent hunter, which is now regarded as vital to the ecological integrity of the planet. It includes Native American legends, fiction, poetry, and the myths and fables of many lands. The book is illustrated by leading wildlife photographers, and there are wolf images in paintings, sculpture and other visual arts. From this material there emerges an animal which bequeathed the qualities of loyalty, affection and intelligence to domestic dogs; a model provider for family and pack, as well as an emblem of graceful and expressive beauty; and to some, a fearsome intruder on the civilized landscape. |
