Monster of God, The Man Eating Predator in the Jungles of History and the Mind

Monster of God, The Man Eating Predator in the Jungles of History and the Mind
David Quammen
NATURAL HISTORY •  2004 •  PAPER  • 384 PAGES

In tracking the alpha predators, Quammen transports us to four of the world's great wild regions: the Gir forest in India, the Russian Far East, the coast of northern Australia and the mountains of Romania. Much like in his award-winning Song of the Dodo, Quammen combines scholarly insight, vivid prose and travel in this latest effort, a marvelous meditation on Indian lions, Australian crocodiles, European brown bears and Siberian tigers, man-eaters all.  (BST84, $17.95)
