À propos de cet audio

 A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The enthralling true story of the rise and reign of O-Six, the celebrated Yellowstone wolf, and the people who loved or feared her.

Before men ruled the earth, there were wolves. Once abundant in North America, these majestic creatures were hunted to near extinction in the lower 48 states by the 1920s. But in recent decades, conservationists have brought wolves back to the Rockies, igniting a battle over the very soul of the West.

With novelistic detail, Nate Blakeslee tells the gripping story of one of these wolves, O-Six, a charismatic alpha female named for the year of her birth. Uncommonly powerful, with gray fur and faint black ovals around each eye, O-Six is a kind and merciful leader, a fiercely intelligent fighter, and a doting mother. She is beloved by wolf watchers, particularly renowned naturalist Rick McIntyre, and becomes something of a social media star, with followers around the world.

But as she raises her pups and protects her pack, O-Six is challenged on all fronts: by hunters, who compete with wolves for the elk they both prize; by cattle ranchers who are losing livestock and have the ear of politicians; and by other Yellowstone wolves who are vying for control of the park’s stunningly beautiful Lamar Valley.

These forces collide in American Wolf, a riveting multigenerational saga of hardship and triumph that tells a larger story about the ongoing cultural clash in the West—between those fighting for a vanishing way of life and those committed to restoring one of the country’s most iconic landscapes.

Best book yet. This story is captivating, exciting, heartbreaking. following the ups and downs of these wolves far from home is a touching and enthralling story. Imagination is required, but the author describes it well, it is easy to let your mind wander, lost in Yellowstone, watching the wolves

Captivating

This book was a wonderful surprise. After briefly hearing Nate Blakeslee speak about his book on CBC radio (similar to NPR in the USA) I was strangely captivated and thought the book might be worth the read. However, to be honest, it was not typical if what I often read (fiction).

I was so happily surprised that this is one of the most wonderful books I have read. Never did I think that a nonfiction tale about wolves would grab my attention and have me coming back so often to listen.

Blakeslee has a way of conveying the story of the wolves, the culture of the watchers, and the politics of a country and weaving these into a wonderful tale. When reading about the wolves you felt part if their pack and you understood them and their complex social lives. You felt the passion of the watchers and activists and the science behind why wolves are so integral to nature. Finally you also understood the views of the ranchers and hunters. The true life characters of 41, 06, 755, Rick, Doug Smith, Lori and Turnbull were also so well done. The writing was excellent, engaging, somewhat academic but in a fictional way. Finally the narrater (Mark Bramhall) was exceptional and the perfect voice for this book.

I highly recommend this book/audiobook.

I listened to this entire book in less then 24 hours. I was captured by every word. I cannot recommend this book enough. The audiobook was perfectly executed. My 12 year old nephew got in the truck today and sat perfectly quiet listening and when we got to our destination he looked at me and said, “Auntie that’s an amazing story!”

Utterly Amazing
