Wolfsong: A Natural And Fabulous History Of Wolves

Summary: Wolfsong a powerful and moving tribute
Review: Wolfsong:A Natural and Fabulous History of Wolves,is a moving and powerful tribute to wolves and those involved in the struggle to protect them.
The author, Catherine Feher-Elston begins with mythic interpretations of wolves and moves on through wolf evolution, wolf and human relationships and tries to help the reader understand why so many Europeans hated wolves while peoples of the Western hemisphere honored them. Wolfsong is the second in her Naturesong series--the first work, Ravensong: A Natural andFabulous History of Ravens and Crows was a beautiful work--a lyrical analysis and interpretation of the world through human and corvid relationships. Her approach integrates myth, religion, science and animal behavior and is truly powerful. Let's hope to see many more books in the Naturesong series.
