  <default_description>&lt;B&gt;With a new introduction on Werner Herzog's film entitled &lt;I&gt;The Grizzly Man&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt; &lt;P&gt; Timothy Treadwell, self-styled &amp;#147;bear whisperer&amp;#148; 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. &lt;P&gt; In &lt;I&gt;The Grizzly Maze&lt;/I&gt;, 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: &amp;#147;Intensely imagistic, artfully controlled prose . . . behind the building tension of Treadwell's path to oblivion, a stunning landscape looms.&amp;#148;&lt;BR&gt; &lt;I&gt;&amp;#151;Newsday&lt;/I&gt;</default_description>

It is more than a recount of Treadwell's last moments or a judgement of the choices he made which lead to his and Amie's deaths.

I was fascinated by the interviews and research Nick Jans did to recreate the personality of Timothy Treadwell, and to look at the way Treadwell used his vision and drive to pull other people i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/36568062">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book tries to piece together the life of Timothy Treadwell in Alaska. The author tries to provide some balance between his fact-gathering and what is portrayed in the movie Grizzly Man, by Werner Herzog, and show us the real Timothy. It also reads as something of a confession about the author's...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/9035219">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Interesting read. Wanted to learn more about the Alaskan wilderness after I read &quot;Into the Wild&quot;. The subjects of this work seem to be as unprepared and/or nuts as McCandliss. Hard to put down after starting.
