Listening for Coyote: A Walk Across Oregon's Wilderness
A new Book by William Sullivan


This latest book by William Sullivan will be available in paperback in May, published by the OSU Press for $18.95. In it Sullivan will share knowledge of Oregon's past, local human lore, and his incredibly broad understanding of the natural history of Oregon. Though not available for review yet, the following is exerpted from the OSU Press webpage.

"The spirit of the wildernss is an elusive quarry. William Sullivan's quest for it took him on a 1,361 mile solo backpacking trek across his native Oregon. His remarkable route traversed four mountain ranges and eighteen designated wilderness areas, led through fog-bound rain forests, windswept glacial cirques, and sunbaked desert camyons--from Oregon's western shore at Cape Blanco to the state's easternmost point at the bottom of Hell's canyon.

Listening for Coyote is Sullivan's classic account of his two-month journey . . . . He spices his journal with the observations of a talented naturalist, notes on history and geology, demonstrations of survival skills and encounters with some unforgettable people."
