Anyone who cares about animals will benefit hugely from reading it." --Shaun Ellis, star of Animal Planet's Living with the Wolfman and author of The Man Who Lives with Wolves Award winning adventure journalist Paul Raffaele's Among the Great Apes is the first book in over a decade--and possibly the last ever--to take its readers into the lives of our charismatic cousins the great apes in their native habitats.
