Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Grizzly King a Romance of the Wild It Is with something like a confession that I offer this second of my nature books to the public - a confession, and a hope; the confession of one who for years hunted and killed before he learned that the wild offered a more thrilling sport than slaughter - and the hope that what I have written may make others feel and understand that the greatest thrill of the hunt is not in killing, but in letting live. It is true that in the great open spaces one must kill to live; one must have meat, and meat is life. But killing for food is not the lust of slaughter; it is not the lust which always recalls to me that day in the British Columbia mountains when, in less than two hours, I killed four grizzlies on a mountain slide - a destruction of possibly a hundred and twenty years of life in a hundred and twenty minutes.
