Editorial Reviews
Without a doubt, this book has some of the best images of wild wolves that you'll ever see . . . the most valuable part of this book is the familiarity it gives with a true pearl of an ecosystem that is relatively intact. McAllister's passion to protect the Great Bear Rainforest is evident, and the narrative he waves shines a light that will surely enhance public appreciation and raise awareness, which may lead to its preservation. —BBC Wildlife
Unleash your inner wild thing with this beautiful account of the marine wolves of northern British Columbia. —National Post
McAllister's deep love for the animals is palpable, and throughout the well-written account, we come to know and care for Ernest, Three Legs, and the other members of the packs he studies. He argues that wolves have much to teach us about larger questions of ecology, perseverance, and self-sacrifice. —Georgia Straight
The Last Wild Wolves is a sobering work, a book that brims with brilliance, emotion, and knowledge . . . Ian gets as up close and personal with the wolves as possible, with photos so intense you can see the wolves' eyes, and their penetrating stares that look right into the soul of those they make visual contact with. —Shelf Life
This book will leave you slack-jawed at the wonders of the wild wolf and educated about the raw deal humans are giving them . . . McAllister documents with passion how the lives of these coastal wolves are so interconnected with their half-land, half-water habitat. —Calgary Herald
