Book Review of The Grizzly Maze : Timothy Treadwell's Fatal Obsession with Alaskan Bears

The Grizzly Maze : Timothy Treadwell's Fatal Obsession with Alaskan Bears
L avatar reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


OMG - this book was incredible! I knew Timothy Treadwell was a naturalist in Alaska, but I had no idea about his life, or anything about his background. His death was predictable, but it's so sad that a man who cared so much for bears would eventually be the victim of one. My only criticism of the book is that I wish it had focused on Amie Huguenard a bit more, as we learn virtually nothing about her. This book is very well written with an almost "folksy" voice - Nick Jans takes you to the Alaskan Coast and makes you feel as if you are part of the Grizzly Maze. I will definitely look for more of his books.
