Anyone with an interest in the ecology and history of the shortgrass prairie will become immersed in the pages of this engaging book. -Carolyn E. Grygiel, North Dakota History

Given the controversy surrounding management of prairie dogs, it is surprising that such a volume has not been published previously. Leave it to that prolific guru of the great Plains, Paul Johnsgard, to pen a book directed at filling that void at such a crucial juncture. . . . Johnsgard's lucid style has the ability to bring this fascinating, important, and timely story to thousands of readers. --Richard P./i>--Richard P. Reading Great Plains Research

A seasoned preservationist as well as a writer who does his own photographic and artistic illustration work, Johnsgard provides a book that should be on the shelf of every person interested in and concerned about the past history and future of life on the great plains. --Glenn M./i>--Glenn M. Busset Manhattan Mercury
