Respectful and intriguing, this in an indispensable historical document on the West, all the more so for the elegance of the story and the clarity of writing." --Rick Bass, author ofThe New WolvesandNinemile Wolves "Decade of the Wolfis an ardent and enthusiastic, highly-informed personal history of the very successful re-introduction of wolves into Yellowstone.

That their presence was the result of human decisions and human love documented in this fine book only made that view all the sweeter." --Bill McKibben, author ofWandering Home: A Long Walk Through America's Most Hopeful Region "Smith's wide-ranging research and Ferguson's skillful storytelling should inspire us to believe in the possibility of healing the woulnds that humankind has inflicted on the natural world." --Thomas NcNamee, author ofThe Return of the Wolf to Yellowstone "A fitting tribute to the first ten critical years of wold restoration to Yellowstone National Park." --L.

Synopsis
This definitive book--by the leader of the Yellowstone Wolf Project and an award-winning nature writer--recounts the ten riveting years since the reintroduction of wolves into the park., The release of Canadian gray wolves in 1995 and 1996 sparked a new-found passion for these animals and the unbound lands that sustain them. This work describes the journey of the wolves themselves and the people who faithfully followed them through the wilds of Yellowstone. It also includes details about the lives of these animals.
