Back From The Edge Also Includes 19Thcentury Blackandwhite Reproductions Depicting The Overzealous Hunting That Led To The Species' Near Extinction. Russell Freedman'S Buffalo Hunt (Holiday, 1988) Concentrates On Its Historical Importance To Native Americans; Dorothy Patent'S Buffalo: The American Bison Today (Clarion, 1986; O.P.) Has A Better Discussion Of Both The Animal'S Behavior And Wildlife Conservation Efforts. Stone'S Book Complements Both Titles. Considering The Natural Calamities That Befall The Wildebeest, It Is Miraculous That It, Too, Has Not Become Endangered. The Author Graphically Shows Or Describes Them Being Killed By Predators, Trampled, Or Drowned. Wildlife Encyclopedias And Books About African Wildlife Usually Include A Discussion Of The Migration, But There Are Few Titles Devoted To This Animal. Report Writers Will Find Both Books Useful.
