Big Game in Alaska - A History of Wildlife and People

The development of Alaskan wildlife management is an engrossing saga, and Morgan Sherwoods vivid writing brings to life the people and politics that shaped its course. A symbolic legal confrontation over hunting rights between General Simon Buckner and the Alaska Game Commission is at the center of this story of the conflict between hunters and those concerned for the hunted. Sherwood shows how attitudes and values in the lower forty-eight states affected federal wildlife policies in Alaska.
