A Grizzly Tale
Author: Johan Otter

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Johan Otter's life changed in a fraction of a second the day he and his daughter Jenna were attacked by a grizzly bear while hiking in Glacier National Park. This is his tale of survival, family, and triumph in the face of trauma. "More than a story of a bear attack, this is the incredible story of a father and daughter's love, determination, resilience, and triumph. Johan and Jenna fought to survive both the attack and the life threatening injuries, fought during extensive recovery, and grew in ways that have inspired many, including the rescue teams that helped them survive a grizzly bear attack on the side of a mountain in Glacier National Park's backcountry." - Gary Moses, Lake McDonald District Ranger, Glacier National Park, 2008 Harry Yount Award recipient "Do miracles exist? My friends and colleagues ask that question and I think we both know the answer. You will too after you read this story of courage. Johan Otter will take you step-by- step through an exciting vacation - to a terrifying Grizzly Bear attack - the brave rescuers putting themselves in harm's way and a dynamic rescue off the edge of a cliff - to the dramatic and almost choreographed care of an emergency department team connected to a trauma system in another state. The story is also about the love of a family - caring medical professionals - the caring of an employer- and the ultimate recovery of a brave man. This could be a fictional movie but it's not. It's the real deal." - Chris Van Gorder, FACHE, President/Chief Executive Officer, Scripps Health "To know Johan is to understand how he miraculously survived the worst bear attack imaginable. Johan's personal account is both frightening and inspiring as he describes how his and the grizzly sow's instincts protected their young. Johan's inner strength, conditioning, stubbornness, amazing rescue, and love of life have, thankfully, enabled him to reach this day." - Gary G. Fybel, FACHE, Chief Executive, Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla "There is no better way to explain a concept than with a story - and A Grizzly Tale is an epic story of how a trauma system functions at its best. A harrowing and fascinating read, it is also a tale of great personal courage and character revealed in adversity." - A. Brent Eastman, MD, FACS, President American College Surgeons 2012-2013

Book Description
That first time I saw her-my mate-I'd been ready to kick some guy's ass for even looking at her. I made no apologies for my possessive, territorial side. I was a grizzly bear shifter, after all. It was my nature to be over the top.Bethany hadn't known what to do at first-being mated to a shifter-one who was grouchy and burly and made no apologies for how rugged he really was. But she wanted me, my sweet little human mate who could have brought a beast like me to my knees with just a look.I'd wanted nothing more than to throw her over my shoulder and take her back to my lair like a caveman. But I let her take the lead, even if my bear wasn't happy, even if the alpha in me wanted to have my way with her right then and there.And I would have my way with her. All the ways that counted, in fact.I'd claim her, mark her, and before it was all said and done, there'd be no doubt in anyone's mind that Bethany was owned by a grizzly.Warning: Holy moly, this hero's crazy for his mate, but who wouldn't want one OTT alpha bear shifter obsessed with you? This story is sweet and sexy, and oh so very filthy. Of course, you get a happily ever after ... and a little somethin'-somethin' at the end to wrap it up nicely.

White Grizzly Bear's Legacy
Author: Estate of Lawney L. Reyes
Publisher: University of Washington Press
ISBN: 0295803355
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
"I walked across the highway and stood on the bank overlooking Lake Roosevelt. My attention was directed to the area where Kettle Falls once flowed. As I stood there the wind came. As I listened I imagined that it talked to me. It seemed that it was telling me of how things once were. I began to think of friends and relatives who were no longer living. They began to appear before me, perched on the large rocks, fishing for the great salmon." In his distinctive voice, Lawney Reyes, grandson of Pic Ah Kelowna or White Grizzly Bear of the Sin Aikst, relates the history of his family and his people. The Sin Aikst are now known as the Lakes tribe, absorbed into the Colville Confederated Tribes of eastern Washington. And where Kettle Falls once flowed and the Sin Aikst once fished are places that exist now only in memory, flooded when the Grand Coulee Dam was completed in 1942. Reyes uses personal and family history to explore the larger forces that have confronted all Native Americans: displacement, acculturation, and the potent force of self-renewal. The son of a Filipino immigrant and a mother who traced her ancestry to the earliest known leaders of the Sin Aikst, Reyes paints a vivid picture of his early life in the Indian village of Inchelium, destroyed by the building of the dam. Reyes describes the loss of homeland and traditional ways of life, the scarcities that followed, and the experiences of a court-ordered Indian boarding school in Oregon. These well-known facts of loss and injustice take on a compelling dimension in Reyes’s blend of history and autobiography, brought to life by the vivid images and personalities he describes. Despite the loss of heritage beneath the waters of the Columbia River and the flood of white acculturation, Reyes and his younger brother, the late Native American leader Bernie Whitebear, were able to fashion rich lives in a changed world, lives that honor the past while engaging with the present.
