The Grizzly Maze: Timothy Treadwell's Fatal Obsession with Alaskan Bears Paperback - 2006
by Nick Jans
A definitive look at man's conflicted relationship with bears, this is the story of Timothy Treadwell's obsession with Alaska, his foolhardy quest to understand Alaskan brown bears, and his violent death in their jaws.
Summary
Timothy Treadwell, self-styled bear whisperer” dared to live among the grizzlies, seeking to overturn the perception of them as dangerously aggressive animals. When he and his girlfriend were mauled in October 2003, it created a media sensation.
In The Grizzly Maze, Nick Jans, a seasoned outdoor writer with a quarter century of experience writing about Alaska and bears, traces Treadwell’s rise from unknown waiter in California to celebrity, providing a moving portrait of the man whose controversial ideas and behavior earned him the scorn of hunters, the adoration of animal lovers and the skepticism of naturalists. BACKCOVER: Intensely imagistic, artfully controlled prose . . . behind the building tension of Treadwell’s path to oblivion, a stunning landscape looms.”
