His description of 'marking' his territory (with the help of several pots of tea) & how the alpha male managed the same feat with a single pass, showing far better control, is both funny & exhilarating. He's cut off a part of their path as his territory, sits there weaponless & participates with them at their level. That pretty much describes the book. It's fascinating. (  ) jimmaclachlan | Sep 25, 2009 |  I read this book in one day in a Cordova Alaska Hotel room. It was pouring rain outside and we were exhausted from a couple of high adventure travel days. I devoured this book in the comfort of that warm hotel room. Later while at Denali we were able to observe a pack of wolves moving through a river drainage. It made reading the book and observing the wolves all the more incredible to have these insights about them from Farley Mowat. I think I understand the idea of the wolf pack much more now. (  ) kristenhazard | Aug 16, 2009 | Mowat lived among the wolves. He slept and ate as they did (waking every few hours to walk in a circle, and settle down again; yummy mice). (  ) stunik | Apr 4, 2009 | self-deprecating author writes of his observations of the wolf. Humerous, ( ) jeanie1 | Dec 14, 2008 | Enormously entertaining, but there are solid reasons to believe Never Cry Wolf is at least partly fiction and perhaps plagiarized. See Wikipedia for more info.
