Scholars of Animal Studies - and truthfully, any readers intrigued by the literary treatment of wildlife in modern America - will find Lauren Perry-Rummels Animal Texts a thoroughly compelling, fascinating book. How are modern writers engaging with wolf recovery, or the spread of coyotes from Pacific to Atlantic shores? Animal Texts smartly interrogates these and many more animal encounters in this distinctive American literary tradition that arguably began with William Bartram and Herman Melville. --Dan Flores, New York Times bestselling author of Wild New World: The Epic Story of Animals and People in America
