About this listen

 Author of At Play in the Fields of the Lord, national Book Award-winner Peter Matthiessen is an accomplished naturalist and one of the most acclaimed writers in the world. This book is a stirring look at the tiger, a magnificent animal that has long fueled human fascination. In critical danger of extinction, only a few thousand of these giant cats remain. Matthiessen's exquisite prose stunningly captures the tigers' dramatic fight to survive. Animals Biological Sciences Environment Outdoors & Nature Science

Critic reviews

"Matthiessen...is our greatest modern nature writer in the lyrical tradition." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Essential reading for everyone interested in wildlife and the preservation of endangered species." (Library Journal)
"Matthiessen is a great travel companion....His knowledge of...animals and people is breathtaking." (Boston Globe)
All stars
Most relevant
Hard to hear. None of the same lyrical writing of other books and generally a tedious report on conservation efforts.
