Never
Cry Wolf: Amazing True Story of Life Among Arctic Wolves
by
Farley Mowat.
First
published in 1961.
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.
