The Daily Coyote - by Shreve Stockton (Paperback)

About the Book

In arresting prose and illuminated with Shreve's breathtaking photography, "The Daily Coyote" is at once Shreve's month-by-month exploration of her coyote pup's first year and a meditation on the nature of wildness versus domestication, and of love in all its forms.

Book Synopsis

- A fascinating true tale: When city girl Shreve Stockton set out to ride her Vespa from San Francisco to New York, she never imagined she'd end up staying in Wyoming, falling in love with a trapper, and working as a ranch hand. Nor could she have forseen meeting Charlie, the orphaned coyote pup who made Stockton's log cabin his home. In a world where coyotes are hunted as killers, Stockton and Charlie faced challenges--as well as joys--throughout their first year, each of which came with revelations about life, love, and the bond between humans and nature. .

- Based on an award-winning blog: The Daily Coyote was inspired by Stockton's blog of the same name. Wildly popular and hailed by Rosie O'Donnell, Vanity Fair, and the L.A. Times, the site receives over a million hits per month and was the winner of the 2007 Weblog of the Year Award only a month after its inception. .

- A moving visual memoir: Stockton documents Charlie's first year in stunning full-color photography. Each month's entry is accompanied by rich images of Charlie as he grows from adorable pup to wily adult, alongside Stockton's tomcat, Eli, and set against the wide-open landscapes of Wyoming. .
