Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Yaak Valley of northwestern Montana is one of the last great wild places in the United States, a land of black bears and grizzlies, wolves and coyotes, bald and golden eagles, and even a handful of humans. But its magic may not be enough to save it from the forces threatening it now. In The Book of Yaak Rick Bass captures the soul of the valley itself, and he shows how, if places like the Yaak are lost, so too will be the human riches of mystery and imagination.

In this amazing book, Rick Bass captures the precious beauty that is Montana. I envy his life in this remote area of my state and live through his poetic perspective.
