Fur, Fins, Feathers and More: Stories of Animals We Love and Admire Peter Canton

Fur, Fins, Feathers and More is appropriately subtitled Stories of Animals We Love and Admire. It is filled with real life tales of pets, domestic animals, wild animals, and some that straddle the line. The stories are always heartfelt, sometimes humorous, sometimes scary, and often poignant. They range from "too close for comfort" encounters with bears, to deep relationships formed with manatees, and the more familiar terrain of pets who bring joy and meaning to life. What is it that draws us so passionately to the world of animals? We've all felt it without knowing exactly why. These pages can help unlock the answer.
PETER CANTON is an adventurer who always seems to attract the unique and unusual. In his most recent book, My Characters, "Pete" told stories of the wide-ranging array of people who have filled his life. In Fur, Fins, Feathers and More, he explores his "up close and personal" interactions with the world of animals, and how they have shaped his view of life itself.
