There’s only one thing that keeps you from being a good tracker. No, it’s not that you haven’t taken some special course, or because an expert tracker hasn’t passed his secret knowledge down to you. And no, this book won’t give it to you.

Because you already have it.

Real stories from the real world, simple and complex at the same time, and well worth pondering!

In the Shadow of Wolf is a marvelous book written by a master storyteller and tracker. Through its powerful and poignant stories, you will feel absorbed in the world and spirit of Nature.

— Joseph Cornell, author of Sharing Nature With Children and John Muir: My Life with Nature
