pickThis book tells the story of how white Americans drove the buffalo to the brink of extinction then a few individuals helped save enough animals to allow the species to survive. It‘s well done with interviews from many sources, including Native voices. It has many illustrations, which I appreciated. Apparently there‘s an associated documentary if you want to check that out.
Soubhiville I saw this author speak at Texas Book Fest a couple years ago and I was touched. He got very emotional about his topic. I haven‘t read this yet but definitely would like to at some point. 3w
Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville That emotion and passion comes through in the book, so I‘m not surprised. I think that makes for the very best kinds of narratives. It adds a layer beyond just facts. And the people quoted in the book have a lot of passion, too, which I love. 3w
