Now a year after his demise and up to half a century after their publication, Farley Mowat and his accounts of the natural world remain unrivaled in potency, grace and venerability. "Never Cry Wolf" is a most important component to this legacy, as it details one of Mowat's first excursions to Canada's North, where he effected significant scientific research regarding Arctic Wolves. But the reader is treated to far more than science: witnessed is the author's own learning and growing as he becomes intimate with the canis lupi and has his heart broken by the fallacious perspective in which humans see them. This is a wonderful book to read.
