Why read it?
1 author picked Coyote Settles the South as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I bought Coyote Settles the South a couple of years ago and decided to reread it again this year. The author, John Lane (an English professor at Wofford College, Spartanburg, South Carolina), became intrigued by coyotes when he encountered them living near his home.
He eventually begins seeking them out during hikes from his home and begins observing and chronicling their habits. This book tells his story of studying coyotes and figuring out what these very intelligent and mostly misunderstood creatures are all about.
John Lane is an engaging writer, and this is a thoroughly enjoyable read.
