A Wolf Called Romeo
A Wolf Called Romeo is the remarkable story of a wolf who returned again and again to interact with the people and dogs of Juneau, living on the edges of their community, engaging in an improbable, awe-inspiring interspecies dance and bringing the wild into sharp focus. At first the people of Juneau were guarded, torn between shoot first, ask questions later instincts and curiosity. But as Romeo began to tag along with cross-country skiers on their daily jaunts, play fetch with local dogs, or simply lie near Nick and nap under the sun, they came to accept Romeo, and he them. For Nick it was about trying to understand Romeo, then it was about winning his trust, and ultimately it was about watching over him, for as long as he or anyone could.

Wolf Hall
Inglaterra, década de 1520. Henry VIII ocupa o trono, mas não tem herdeiros. O cardeal Wolsey, o seu conselheiro principal, é encarregue de garantir a consumação do divórcio que o papa recusa conceder. É neste ambiente de desconfiança e de adversidade que surge Thomas Cromwell, primeiro como funcionário de Wolsey e, mais tarde, como seu sucessor. Thomas Cromwell é um homem verdadeiramente original. Filho de um ferreiro cruel, é um político genial, intimidante e sedutor, com uma capacidade subtil e mortal para manipular os outros e as circunstâncias. Impiedoso na perseguição dos seus próprios interesses, é tão ambicioso na política quanto na vida privada. A sua agenda reformadora é executada perante um parlamento que atua em benefício próprio e um rei que flutua entre paixões românticas e acessos de raiva homicida. Escrito por uma das grandes escritoras do nosso tempo, Wolf Hall é um romance absolutamente singular.
Wolf Conflicts
Wolf populations have recently made a comeback in Northern Europe and North America. These large carnivores can cause predictable conflicts by preying on livestock, and competing with hunters for game. But their arrivals often become deeply embedded in more general societal tensions, which arise alongside processes of social change that put considerable pressure on rural communities and on the rural working class in particular. Based on research and case studies conducted in Norway, Wolf Conflicts discusses various aspects of this complex picture, including conflicts over land use and conservation, and more general patterns of hegemony and resistance in modern societies.
Wolves on the Hunt
The wolf is an adept killer, able to take down prey much larger than itself. While adapted to hunt primarily hoofed animals, a wolf - or especially a pack of wolves - can kill individuals of just about any species. Combining behavioral data, thousands of hours of original field observations, research in the literature, a wealth of illustrations, and - in the e-book edition and online - video segments from cinematographer Robert K. Landis, the authors create a compelling and complex picture of these hunters.
