Meet Mr Grizzly: A Saga on the Passing of the Grizzly Bear
Editorial Reviews
Larry Mueller, Hunting Dogs Editor, Outdoor Life
"A brilliantly innovative 1890's houndman whose training methods and hunting techniques were far ahead of his time..."
Book Description
First published in 1943 but long out of print, "Meet Mr. Grizzly" was rated by J. Frank Dobie in "Guide to Life and Literature of the Southwest as "...the most mature yet published by a ranchman." Now this singular reminiscence by a remarkable man is drawing a whole new generation of readers.
Montague Stevens was much more than a one-armed British remittance man with a passion for bear hunting. Educated at Cambridge, he was one of the most literate chroniclers of New Mexico's rural history. That he lived in a time when grizzlies still roamed the wilds of southwest New Mexico makes Steven's observations of great interest to today's bear enthusiasts. His well reasoned comments on natural history, dog training, and the life of an early day cattleman are an invaluable reference.
