Told in a very candid and down-to-earth manner, Pat seems very approachable, like someone you could sit around a campfire with and swap stories. Never dull, the story telling pulls you into her perilous world, where you share the strange and sometimes dangerous situations she navigates as she travels the highways and wilderness areas of North America. In the end it all seems worth it when we see the results of her labors, the stunning wildlife photos, the vivid observations of the animal's behavior and the hard earned knowledge gleaned from learning on the job. Wild Among Us is unique in that has the aesthetic beauty of a fine art photo book combined with the powerful stories of pursuit, danger and life-threatening wildlife encounters that push the author to face her fears, rely on her intuition to survive and become stronger for it.
