Description: From Internet: Account of the author's travels with his sons conducting a comprehensive photographic and notebook research of the life of the grizzly bear and associated species in Western Canada and Alaska. Includes an historic account of grizzly bear hunting Reviews from Internet: .....One of the best firsthand studies of the big bears ever written. -- The New York Times.....The first modern classic of grizzly bear literature. -- Doug Peacock, Author of Grizzly Years .....Andy Russell grew up in grizzly country, married a young woman who had also grown up in grizzly, and raised a family in grizzly country. The stories are the real thing, with all the wonder and humor that comes from lifetimes of experience with wildlife. This book, with Frank Duqesne's NO ROOM FOR BEARS, and Enos Mills' THE GRIZZLY, is a classic that belongs on the shelf of everyone interested in the grizzly and its future in North America.Andy Russell's Grizzly Country blends a rich history of concern for this bear with some gentle and telling words to the wise. He even got ahead of the scientists in some cases. For instance, biologists used to insist that the bears living on the coast of Alaska were not the same species as the bears living inland. Russell wryly wrote how strange it was to see a bear moving up one side of a mountain, and become another species just by crossing the ridge and moving inland, down the other side of the mountain.Russell saw grizzlies as a child, and raised his kids around the bears. He has great stories to tell, stories of humor, and depth. This is a very fine book, cover to cover.
