About This Item
New York: Doubleday & Company Inc., 1980. Foreword by Margaret E. Murie. In this brilliantly conceived narrative, outdoor writer James Greiner tells the story of the gray wolf, one of the most fascinating....and misunderstood....animals of the Arctic. Focusing on a single pack of wolves that live in the vast Tanana River Valley, Mr Greiner traces the life of each individual member for a one year period, recounting in splendid detail the birth of the pups, the triumph of the hunt, and the agony of death in man-made traps. 'The Red Snow' is a book rich in Arctic lore, which only a man who has spent much of his life in the inaccessible wilderness reaches of Alaska could have treated with such authority. Blue boards with brown cloth spine. Gilt title print to spine. No ownership markings. A sound copy in a price-intact photo dust jacket. Photograph by Rollie Ostermick.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good.
