"In 25 succinct chapters, [the author] explores the natural and cultural history of the fox. Along with his personal observations of local foxes ... are his considerations of their greater role as objects in hunting, the fur trade, religion, literature, and more ... Intriguing and charming."
—Booklist
"Compelling and engaging. Tjernshaugen writes in an easy-to-read style that is full of insight and understanding. As I read his book, I felt like I was sitting beside him as he described fox behavior. He is a great example of what a naturalist can learn by simply going out into the wild and watching animals live out their lives. Highly recommended for anyone that wants to learn more about foxes."
—Rick McIntyre, author of The Rise of Wolf 8 and The Reign of Wolf 21
"Join a journey of quiet wonder: scrambling through blueberry bushes to spy a den, listening for barks over a moonlit field, and watching fox pups explore beside a hiking trail. Tjernshaugen has created a beautiful portrait of an instantly recognizable yet elusive animal."
