Overview

A history of these much maligned creatures seeks to dispel many of the popular prejudices. Wolves are creatures of myths and legends and, in fiction, are usually portrayed as the evil villain. Indeed, the cry of a wolf on a dark night must be one of nature's most eerie and fear-inducing sounds known to man. Here, however, the authors set out, through words and stunning photographs, to give a clear and balanced understanding of these proud and splendid looking carnivorous creatures. The fact that wolves have managed to live through harsh environments, as well as man's attempts at eradication, makes them one of nature's great survivors. AUTHOR: Art Wolfe is an American wildlife and nature photographer noted for his mastery of colour and composition, combining, as he does, elements of photojournalism and art photography. He has released numerous photo books and instructional videos of photographic technique. Two of his designs have been used on stamps issued by the US postal services and he has produced a series for public television; 'Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe'. He has a great love for the environment and serves on the advisory boards for the Wildlife Conservation Society and is a Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers. Art is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society and has won numerous awards for his work, including Outstanding Nature Photographer of the Year, 1998, from the North American Nature Photography Association and Photographer of the Year, 1996, from the Photo Media magazine. 80+ colour illustrations
