Amie Huguenard, the Grizzly Man’s girlfriend, had to die a thousand deaths, screaming her head off for Lord knows how long, but certainly long enough for her to have escaped instead. Timothy Treadwell had just been dragged into the alders to be eaten alive, but she was a city girl who was nearly clueless when it came to bear safety and how to survive an attack by one. She could have lived if she’d only know what to do.

          Adventurer, Penguin historical author, and bush pilot, Tom Hron, who has spent a lifetime flying floatplanes and helicopters in North American’s most dangerous bear country, tells about real-life attacks and relates them to survival. He takes on the would-be bear experts and tells you what NOT to do, which will be controversial to say the least. Black bears, grizzlies, browns, and polar bears--he covers them all in 240 spellbinding pages, and what you read may save your life.
