Never Cry Wolf
by Farley Mowat
More than a half-century ago the naturalist Farley Mowat accepted an assignment to investigate why wolves were killing Arctic caribou. Mowat's account of the summer he lived in the frozen tundra alone-- studying the wolf population and developing a deep affection for these wild creatures (who were of no threat to caribou or man)-- is today celebrated as a classic of nature writing, at once a tale of remarkable adventure and an indelible record of the myths and magic of wolves.
