Nothing is more challenging for a writer, that most civilized of creatures, than to look closely at an untamed animal and try to convey exactly its wildness. Both fiction and nonfiction, the writings collected in this splendid volume--including works by Kipling, Faulkner, Roosevelt and Huxley--challenge our environmental conscience and remind us of our origins.
