520    "The enthralling story of the rise and reign of O-Six, the
       celebrated Yellowstone wolf, and the people who loved or 
       feared her. Before men ruled the earth, there were wolves.
       Once abundant in North America, these majestic creatures 
       were hunted to near extinction in the lower 48 states by 
       the 1920s. But in recent decades, conservationists have 
       brought wolves back to the Rockies, igniting a battle over
       the very soul of the West. With novelistic detail, Nate 
       Blakeslee tells the gripping story of one of these wolves,
       O-Six, a charismatic alpha female named for the year of 
       her birth. Uncommonly powerful, with gray fur and faint 
       black ovals around each eye, O-Six is a kind and merciful 
       leader, a fiercely intelligent fighter, and a doting 
       mother. She is beloved by wolf watchers, particularly 
       renowned naturalist Rick McIntyre, and becomes something 
       of a social media star, with followers around the world. 
       But as she raises her pups and protects her pack, O-Six is
       challenged on all fronts: by hunters, who compete with 
       wolves for the elk they both prize; by cattle ranchers who
       are losing livestock and have the ear of politicians; and 
       by other Yellowstone wolves who are vying for control of 
       the park's stunningly beautiful Lamar Valley. These forces
       collide in American Wolf, a riveting multigenerational 
       saga of hardship and triumph that tells a larger story 
       about the ongoing cultural clash in the West--between 
       those fighting for a vanishing way of life and those 
       committed to restoring one of the country's most iconic 
       landscapes."--Jacket.
