“A masterpiece of well-researched history, colorful lore, pioneering science, and the savvy of personal experience. Sue Consolo-Murphy, uniquely qualified to write this book by virtue of her decades of productive work on behalf of the region’s bears, has given us the authoritative and richly textured tale we’ve long needed. From here on out, anyone hoping to come to terms with Teton bears should start by reading this book.”—Paul Schullery, author of The Bear Doesn’t Know “This book is a delight to read. . . . It is a story of bears and people and how we can live with them.”—Christopher Servheen, retired grizzly bear recovery coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service “A wonderful look at the black and grizzly bears of Grand Teton National Park. It is a fascinating story of expansion and change, with grizzlies such as famous 399 and her offspring going south to colonize new lands.”—Robert W. Righter, author of Crucible for Conservation: The Struggle for Grand Teton National Park
