Parker's book is an absolute must for the eastern cougar researcher, searcher, and tracker. Parker details most efforts to discoverrecent data on the animals, reviews their history in America, and documents (through photos and text) examples of eastern panther taxidermy mounts found in museums and collections throughout the eastern section of the United States. To have all of this information in one place is worth the asking price of the book alone. Great job Mr. Parker!

What an amazing book. I am a US history buff, and here I am introduced for the first time to so much about the history of animals in the US. It is amazing what these beautiful creatures went through at the hands of the settlers in the early years of our country. It amazes me how we completely decimated so much of nature's beauty in the name of progress. I recommend this book highly not just to folks interested in panthers, and wild life, but anyone interested in history as well, like me.

A very good book on the historical presence of North America's largest cat. Full of interesting anectdotes, photos and stories that brought the presence of this large cat to life for eastern North America. A very good read if you want to learn about this large cat, where it use to be found and why has it disapeared from our landscape.
