Wapsuk--Cree for "great bear" is now both better known and more threatened than at any time in recent history. Global warming and toxic pollutants pose deadly threats, even as advances in technology and travel have made it possible for more people to see polar bears than ever before. Capturing one of the most "at-risk" populations along Hudson Bay, photographer Dennis Fast and wildlife author Rebecca Grambo create an intimate portrait of one of the Earth's most majestic creatures. Full color, hard cover, this is not only a photographic journal, but the story of a key species in crisis.Fast, Dennis is the author of 'Wapusk: White Bear of the North', published 2003 under ISBN 9781896150321 and ISBN 1896150322.
