GAME WARS

R175.00

The story of the men and women who infiltrate poaching rings in the fight to thwart the full-scale extermination of endangered species, Game Wars offers a first hand account of how these agents operate: the elaborate covers they devise, the meticulous preparation necessary to pull off a successful sting, the dangers they faces as they impersonate big game hunters, ivory traders and professional smugglers, and the qualities they share with the poachers they hunt, love of danger, of the outdoors, and a willingness to skirt the law. Reisner focuses on Dave Hall, a special agent for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, who operates from New Orleans but whose beat stretches as far as Alaska and its ivory poachers.

A startling and scintillating combination of wildlife lore and true crime, Game Wars will join Cadillac Desert as one of the classic books on conservation.
