Wright, first published in 1909, is one of the best all-around books ever written on the subject. It is both highly informative and entertaining. . . . Wright began as a bear-hunter, and an extraordinarily successful one. He pitted his own strength, endurance, ingenuity, skill, knowledge, and craftiness against that of the grizzlies. . . . His most remarkable achievement as a hunter was killing five grizzlies with five shots, which he called \"the greatest bag of grizzlies that I have ever made single-handed.\" . . . His book shows a hunter becoming a naturalist: Wright first studied the grizzly in order to hunt him, then he came to hunt him in order to study him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Grizzly Bear\u003c\/i\u003e treats the early history of the grizzly as recorded by the white man and the life and escapades of James Capen [\"Grizzly\"] Adams, and most important it recounts the true-life experiences of Wright himself. Although I have spent some eighteen years studying the grizzly, eight of them intensively, there are few points on which I would take issue with the accuracy of Wright's observations o his interpretations of what he saw--Frank C.
