In June 1919 Jim and Laurette Stanton abandoned their comfortable
apartment in Seattle and made the journey up the 90 mile-long
Knight Inlet on the B.C. Coast to seek contentment in the
wilderness. For years they made a precarious living by trapping,
fishing and hand logging. The first Christmas they were so poor
that all Jim could give his wife was a young porcupine. But to
Laurette, who loved all wild creatures, the porcupine was the
finest present she had ever received. The Stantons thought of the
abundant grizzlies as friends too, not enemies. Four of the big
bears slept within 100 yards of their cabin. A mother and her cubs
used their garden as a playground. Later Laurette raised three
orphaned grizzly cubs. This book is about grizzlies and the
Stantons who loved and respected them. Why did they leave their
life in the city behind and did they find what they were looking
for? Their story will tell you.
