Farley mowat was an absolute treasure of a human being. His books had such a profound effect on me as a child, and to revisit them as an adult has only reinforced the magical way he writes about nature.
he does not sugarcoat the human experience of nature conservation, but talks about it with profound clarity and understanding.
this book is a gem. look for my favorite too, Never Cry Wolf.
this book tells the true story of his life plight to eve a whale, but it goes into the very depth of our relationship with animals. A remarkable and heartbreaking read
