Book Description
Wolfwatching was the fourteenth collection published by Ted Hughes (1930-98), England's former Poet Laureate. In it, we encounter several poems that feature his typically striking yet somber exactitude, a style of perception and depiction always unclouded by sentiment. Other poems find Hughes returning to the Yorkshire landscape of his childhood, recounting the tragic effects of World War I, or revisiting the dire plight of that region's coal miners and textile workers. Wolfwatching is an unflinching book about the struggles of this world, struggles both physical and spiritual, both in and out of nature.

Book Description
As wolves, Isobel, her kin, and a Highland slave are on the run from her Icelandic clan and now they must find a way to live in peace in Scotia without anyone discovering they are wolves or Vikings. Wearing traditional Icelandic clothes, sailing a Viking longboat, and speaking Gaelic with a Nordic accent, it won’t be easy. Alasdair is the wolf pack leader of his Highland clan, in the middle of adding fortifications to his castle when he spies what he thinks is a small Viking longboat—which can mean raiders and a fight. But what he discovers is two adult wolf females, a nearly grown male, and a female and male bairn on their shores. He can’t imagine the family making the treacherous journey to his land all on their own, but he’s captivated by Isobel, the woman who led her people to what she hopes will be safety. Not everyone in his pack welcomes having Vikings living among them though. And Isobel is a wild and unpredictable woman, which fascinates him all the more.

Book Description
New insights into the changing human attitudes towards wild nature through the depiction of wolves in human culture and heritage. Few animals arouse such strong opinion as the wolf. It occupies a contested, ambiguous, yet central role in human culture and heritage. It appears as both an inspirational emblem of the wild and an embodiment of evil. Offering a mirror to different human attitudes, beliefs, and values, the wolf is, arguably, the species that plays the greatest role in shaping our views on what nature is or should be. North America and, more recently, Europe have witnessed a remarkable return of the grey wolf (Canis lupus, and its close relative the Eurasian wolf, Canis lupus lupus) to eco-systems. The essays collected here explore aspects of this recovery, and consider the history, literature and myth surrounding this iconic species. There are chapters on wolf taxonomy, including the coywolf, the red wolf, and the many faces of the dingo. We also meet the Tasmanian wolf and encounter Nazi Werewolves from Outer Space. The book explores the challenges of separating fact from fiction and superstition, and our willingness to co-exist with large carnivores in the twenty-first century. Biologists, historians, anthropologists, cultural theorists, conservationists and museologists will all find riches in the detail presented in this wolf collection.

Book Description
In the tradition of Peter Matthiessen's Wildlife in America or Aldo Leopold, Brenda Peterson tells the 300-year history of wild wolves in America. It is also our own history, seen through our relationship with wolves. The earliest Americans revered them. Settlers zealously exterminated them. Now, scientists, writers, and ordinary citizens are fighting to bring them back to the wild. Peterson, an eloquent voice in the battle for twenty years, makes the powerful case that without wolves, not only will our whole ecology unravel, but we'll lose much of our national soul.

Book Description
What happens when a wild wolf's fated mate is a mother with a small child on the run from her abusive ex? I’ve never thought much about finding my mate. I figured if and when I met her, it would be another wolf shifter. We’d scent each other, chase each other’s tails for an hour, get busy, and I’d embed my mating mark. Easy. Simple. Effortless. But when has anything involving my wolf been easy, simple, or effortless? The wild f$#%r has been wreaking havoc since the day he burst onto the scene, and it took losing my parents and being cast out by my pack to rein him in. That, and eight years running missions with my SpecOpsSierra brethren—my new family. We’re all civilians now, living blissfully boring lives near the Canadian border. Well, maybe not blissfully boring. Not anymore. Not after I scent a human female who my wolf swears is our mate. Sick with infection and fever, our mate is running from her abusive ex while trying to care for her five-year-old son. She’s afraid and refuses my help, but as a military medic, I can’t let her suffer. As her Fated mate, I can’t leave her unprotected, unclaimed, or unloved. When I woke up this morning, I wasn’t think about my finding my mate, much less starting a family. Now, I’ll kill anyone who tries to take them away from me, to include the man who drove her unwittingly into my arms. But how do I convince a woman who escaped one obsessively controlling man to accept my mating mark and bind herself to me as my fated mate for the rest of our lives? And what am I going to do if she says no?
