THE RETURN OF WOLVES An Iconic Predator's Struggle to Survive in the American West

This audio account of human-wolf interactions in Washington state describes the ways environmentalists and ranchers work--usually at odds--to achieve their goals. George Newbern narrates this examination of human-wolf interactions in an engaging baritone with a slight staccato intonation. His pacing is easygoing and unhurried, making this work quite easy to follow. His expressive narration keeps the listener engaged. The people being discussed are those who make a living off the land and those who may not live in the area but still drive policy regarding wolves. The author is relatively evenhanded in showing how their opposing views and actions play out. M.T.F. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2023]
