A century hence this graceful, passionate, witty book will be studied as part of the post-industrial awakening -- the process of thought and action by which we restored wapiti, grizzlies, wolves, cougars, and the grand, beautiful country in which they yet abide. Read, think, act." Ted Williams, editor-at-large of Audubon Magazine</p><p>"Elkheart is a fascinating journey into the soul of a man whose passion is the American elk, whose spirit lives deep in the mountain country, and whose voice resonates with the power of the wild." Richard Nelson, author of the Island Within</p><p>"David Petersen's Elkheart is a stimulating, timely, compelling commentary on our wildlife and its uncertain future, with elk staging the central attraction. However, Elkheart is about much more than elk, and deserves to be read widely. It is inspirational, with values we shall need for tomorrow. I recommend this book highly." Valerius Geist, author of Elk Country</p><p>"Petersen's skills as a naturalist and his clear, thoughtful writing style ensure that Elkheart will be enjoyed by anyone who appreciates wildlife and wild places. Elkheart portrays the author's love and passion for elk and elk country, and his dedication to perpetuating the existence of both." Gary Wolfe, President, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation </p><br>
