This is a very fine collection of non-digitized, unretouched photos of truly free-roaming wild animals found in Montana. Don uses light in his photography better than almost any other wildlife photographer in print and has the patience to get the memorable shots others miss. If you're from Montana or if you've visited our state and gotten a glimpse of what we have to offer, you will enjoy this book. Anyone who thinks photography is not art has not seen Don's photos. We in Troy, MT are lucky in that every couple of years we have the opportunity to see a slide presentation of his best photos from around the country. In addition to being one of the best wildlife photographers in the business, Don is a genuinely nice person.

Page after page the viewer of this breathtaking book is treated to feeling as if he or she is adventuring in the wildest, most remote places. Clearly photographing wildlife is a labor of love, artistry, and zeal for Donald M. Jones. Every aspect of light and shadow, and every component of composition, plus each awe-inspiring setting makes for an unforgettable journey. I felt as if I were learning about each animal and viewing a work of art at the same time. I will treasure this book. Kirsten P. Stromberg

This coffee table book is by the most stunning of its type, and it is a must have for any person who enjoys the finer things in life. It covers vast spectrums of Montana wildlife and presents it in a manner that will bring a tear to your eye.

I am a big fan of Montana and it's wildlife and I am also an amateur photographer. I have quite a few books of this genre but this one really tops them all. The photographs are not only remarkable in their photographic quality, but they all have a unique aspect that sets them apart from other wildlife shots.

Great color, fabulous poses . . . just like we see these critters in their natural habitat. But we can't seem to capture them like this!

I was very impressed with my order. Not only was my product in excellent shape for a used item but my shipment was fast, received sooner than expected and tracking kept me assured of arrival. Thank you.Montana Wildlife Portfolio

This and all of don jones's wildlife books are the highest quality of photos. A true master at his art!

Jim Cole has been ticketed and banned at many National Parks for willing breaking the law and endangering, not only his life, but the lives of the bears. He was recently mauled at Yellowstone and his actions most likely will result in the death of the bear as he pursued and harrassed a mother bear protecting her cubs. We were at Yellowstone during the incident and the rangers said that the photos they found in his camera did not line up with the tale he told.

This is his second mauling because he will risk the life of the bear just to get his money shot. If you are considering buying his books because you love bears, be aware that he is not an advocate for bears but rather will do things that result in their being shot in order to enrich himself.
