Winner, National Indie Excellence Book Awards for Nature (2011); Finalist, National Indie Excellence Book Awards for Adventure (2011).An extraordinary portrait of the lives of wolves, the researchers who study them, and the rustic highlanders who share their landscape in the mysterious wilds of Transylvania. Here we take an enchanting journey, tracking wolves through the deep snows and dense forests of Romania, where 'Old Europe' still hangs on, hardly touched by modern trends or discovered by western travelers. Guided with humor, insight, and vivid description, we fend off belligerent shepherd dogs and foul weather to discover not only wolf behavior and ecology but also human history, culture, and myth: ancient 'wolfwarriors' (Dacians), colorful Romani (Gypsies), legendary vampires (Dracula) and more. And as we contemplate the benefits of wilderness, the joys of selfdiscovery, and the nature of time and consciousness, we are entertained and informed with 32 pages of beautiful color photographs.
