How lucky we are that there are humans who dedicate their time/life to bridging the gaps to understanding the differences (and similarities) between species. My regret... is: not meeting Alex. I believe Irene's book is the next best thing. | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
With nearly eighty reviews at the time I write this, there probably isn't much more stellar insight that I can give, which hasn't already been given so much more eloquently.

Customer Review:
My niece was thrilled with this book. I bought it because kids don't play, explore and/or know how to anymore. As a science teacher I'm constantly telling my students to get outside and get to doing something even just observing stuff around you. Not enough of this is done with video games, cell... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

If you have his number, you'll call this author, John "Lofty" Wiseman.
If you don't, you better have this book.

I bought this book for my husband, we are interested in birding. It turns out it probably will be better for our grandchild, as a good introduction to bird habitats.

Krakauer, with his experience of extreme adventures and good understanding of psychology, has done an excellent work of investigation.
Methodically, he allows the reader to better understand this tragic story, clearing alongside McCandless of foolishness and irresponsibility suspicions. He... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

Heart warming account of a man and his dog. Loved the conversations with Merle. For those with dogs you can understand the level of communication that goes on.

Having watched and enjoyed Survivorman on the Discovery channel for the past 3 years, I was anxious to get this book and it did not disappoint!

Customer Review:
While Steven Rinella's "American Buffalo: In Search of a Lost Icon" might appear to be nothing more than a book about hunting and successfully killing a buffalo, the reader needs only to delve into the first few pages to realize that this ain't just another episode of Buck McNeely (non-hunters will... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
