"Storer and Tevis have reconstructed the natural history of the grizzly in California, its original distribution, its gradual extinction, and the relationship of the grizzly, first with the Indians, then the Spaniards, and finally with the Americans. . . . Documentation is thorough throughout but does not get in the way of the story. Many photographs and drawings reproduced from early publications serve to give full flavor to the lore of the grizzly."—Arthur C. Smith, San Francisco Chronicle Review

"A book that will appeal equally to the mammologist and the general reader. Provided with fine illustrations, the volume contains a thorough and probably definitive account of its subject."—United States Quarterly Book Review

"California Grizzly [is] the only comprehensive volume on the subject."—Jeanne Wirka, Defenders
