If you're hoping to someday catch a glimpse of the imposing and
powerful grizzly bear, you'll have to take a trek through the
Northern Rockies, Canada, or Alaska. Having once roamed the entire
continent of North America, the population of grizzlies in the
lower 48 states has been nearly wiped out by aggressive hunting.
First published in 1955, this classic work by one of America's
beloved outdoor writers pays homage to the Pleistocene Era's most
"pugnacious and extraordinary" survivor, the grizzly bear. As you
read about the once scientifically classified Ursus horribilis,
you'll learn about this powerful recluse's role in Native American
rituals and myths, and relive the encounters early explorers and
mountain men experienced with grizzlies. "Observing and studying
grizzly bears," McCracken thoughtfully observed, "has proved to be
far more gratifying than all the hunting I have done."
