In Good condition, with some general cover wear and some cocking to spine. Signed copies are not commonly offered.

$21.95 Postpaid in U.S. (Subject to Prior Sale). To order please contact us at huntbook1@gmail.com

From the back cover:

“Beyond its riveting adventure and solid natural history, Grizzly Years is a powerful argument for the preservation of all things wild. It is also the extraordinary personal chronicle of a man redeemed by the American wilderness”.

Chapter titles include Indian Country, Year of the Grizzlies, The Bitter Creek Griz, Demise of the Grizzly, The Sacred Bear of the Blackfeet, and more.

Peacock was the inspiration for the George Hayduke character in Edward Abbey’s infamous environmental novel “The Monkey Wrench Gang” (a must read in itself, by the way). A more irascible, confounding character there has never been. Hayduke lives!

Indeed, books hold a bountiful garden of words and expressions, and a treasure of pleasures. It is impossible to predict which thoughts may seed, and from which what ideas may grow.

We have listed some of our favorite reads and references in our recommended reading column. We would love to hear about your favorites, too.
