Book of the Week

Bear Attacks: Their Causes and Avoidance - by Stephen Herrero

Dust jacket blurb of the week: "I am one of the people who was attacked by a bear on September 26, 1995 at Lake Louise Campground in Banff National Park. I believe that our having read your book, Bear Attacks, was a primary factor in our being less badly injured than the occupants of other tents. I recommend Bear Attacks to anyone who expresses an interest in the topic of bears." - Laura Shearin, National Park Service

Which leads me to ask, what happened to the "occupants of other tents" who were more grievously injured than this blurb author? They probably should have read the book. You've been warned.
