Minor pencil marking first inner page by previous owner. No other markings inner pages, spine intact, no creases. "On December 28, 1985 after eighteen years of research in the dripping rain forests of the Virunga volcanoes in central Africa, Dian Fossey was brutally murdered. Though not quite fifty-four years old, she had lived a life as remarkable and rewarding as that of any woman of our time. Dian Fossey went to Africa at the urging of famed anthropologist Dr. Louis Leakey to study one of the rarest, most mysterious animals on the wild mountain gorilla. She found the great, gentle apes threatened on all sides by zoo collectors, poachers, herdsmen and scientists. Slowly, she came to understand the magnificent creatures on their own terms, to understand and admire--even to love them. She became their greatest champion--and their greatest martyr. Virunga is the startling true account of Dian Fossey's life as told by Canada's favorite wildlife writer, Farley Mowat. Based on Fossey's private correspondence, journals, camp records, personal papers and interviews with her colleagues, friends and enemies, it is the story of one woman's inexhaustible passion for life--and the creatures who share it with us." Good Reads "Farley McGill Mowat was a conservationist and one of Canada's most widely-read authors. Many of his most popular works have been memoirs of his childhood, his war service, and his work as a naturalist. His works have been translated into 52 languages and he has sold more than 14 million books. Mowat studied biology at the University of Toronto. During a field trip to the Arctic, Mowat became outraged at the plight of the Ihalmiut, a Caribou Inuit band, which he attributed to misunderstanding by whites. His outrage led him to publish his first novel, People of the Deer (1952). This book made Mowat into a literary celebrity and was largely responsible for the shift in the Canadian government's Inuit policy: the government began shipping meat and dry goods to a people they previously denied existed. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society ship RV Farley Mowat was named in honour of him, and he frequently visited it to assist its mission." Good Reads.

BOOK: Corners, Spine Bumped; Light Shelf Rub to Boards; Spine Slightly Cocked; Edges Lightly Soiled.

ALSO KNOWN AS: Published in the United States by Warner Books under the title Woman in the Mists. JACKET PHOTOGRAPH: Robert M. Campbell. JACKET DESIGN: David Wyman. BOOK DESIGN AND MAP ILLUSTRATIONS BY: Giorgetta Bell McRee. SYNOPSIS: In her passions, her faults, her uncompromising dedication, Dian Fossey was unique, and her story has all the elements of compelling drama: ambition and sacrifice, love, violence, witchcraft and murder--and of course the great lure of Africa itself, the dark continent. - and - On December 28, 1985, after eighteen years in the dripping rain forest of the Virunga volcanoes in Central Africa, Dian Fossey was murdered in a particularly brutal manner. She was not quite fifty-four years old, but she had lived a life as remarkable as that of any woman of our time. In 1966 Dian Fossey went to Africa at the urging of famed anthropologist Dr. Louis Leakey, who wanted her to study the last vestiges of one of the rarest, most mysterious animals on earth: the mountain gorilla. She found the great creatures beleaguered on all sides by zoo collectors, by poachers, by local tribesmen seeking new lands to farm, by scientists who wanted their skulls and skins for study purposes. Slowly, slowly, she came to know the creatures, and to understand. They reciprocated. And then she became their champion. During the last ten years of her life, she worked to save them from assured destruction, paying a horrendous price, alienating authorities, local natives, much of the scientific clique who studied primates, and some of the people whom she most deeply loved, and sacrificing all prospects of home and family, children that might have been, her health, and finally herself, so that the great, dark, luminous-eyed apes might still survive. Dian Fossey did what few have done before her. She broke free of the narrow segregation we impose upon ourselves in our relation with the rest of life upon this planet. She came to understand that all living beings are one, that each of us is part and parcel of all life, that we are all one with life. The book is based on Dian Fossey's private correspondence, journals, camp records and other papers--to which author Farley Mowat was granted exclusive access--and augmented by information drawn from interviews with colleagues, friends (and enemies) who shared a part of her life. Farley Mowat, author of such distinguished books as People of the Deer, Never Cry Wolf, A Whale for the Killing, The Snow Walker, and Sea of Slaughter, has long been eloquent in his indictment of man's exploitation of human and non-human life on this planet. He was born in Belleville, Ontario, in 1921 and began writing for a living in 1949 after spending two years in the Arctic. He has lived in or visited almost every part of Canada and many other lands. More than ten million copies of Farley Mowat's books have been translated and published in hundreds of editions in over forty countries. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
