Readers’ Comments

Dear Chris,

I have just finished reading your fantastic book, Mountain Lion. Your book is the first book dealing with the Mountain Lion that I have ever read. I would hate to have to judge other books on this subject after reading yours. I’m afraid they might not hold up. I remember my first Dr. Pepper so many years ago; the other drinks just don’t taste as good today. I learned so many things that were not on my brain menu from reading your book. Several of your sentences left me in stitches.

Reviews
“I consider Mountain Lion an absolute must for my library.  As a book about America’s lion, this is an astonishing piece of research, well told.  But it is more than that; it’s a book about us – about how we are evolving as a people, making room in our hearts and our land for our great cat and the wilderness it represents.” 
—Ted Williams, Audubon Magazine columnist

“This is an extraordinary book.  Well-researched and authentic, Mountain Lion tells the story of America’s love-hate relationship with its biggest cat in a literate, highly readable prove.  Highly recommended.”  
— David Brown, Editor, The Wolf in the Southwest
