The World Of The Wolf

The dedication reads: "To wolves. My men learn to appreciate their right to roam free in the wild places of the world."

From the introduction: "In the preparation of this book the authors have had two main objectives in mind: first, to give a reasonably complete outline of all that we know about wolves, either from our personal experience or from the works of others; second, to encourage a more favorable attitude toward an animal which we believe has been misrepresented and persecuted beyond reason for thousands of years."

Data from the authors of this book was cited in L. David Mech's 1970 book The Wolf: The Ecology and Behavior of an Endangered Species.
