I really liked this one. It has a lot of the author in the story. She pulls you into the events and the research she did for this book and makes it all very personal. She takes an even handed look at all of the issues surrounding these furry critters and does not beat you over the head with an environmental message. In fact, the sadest part of the book is learning that the fur trade is dying off. At the same time, she is able to explain in a very detailed way why we need to live with Beavers and alternatives to simply treating them like pests when they conflict with humans.
