Robert St. John and Anthony Thaxton have produced a beautiful new volume of art and family stories highlighting the prolific and reclusive Walter Inglis Anderson. It is a stunning collection filled with beautiful imagery and writings from an artist some critics have called "America's Van Gogh."

This book shines light on all the facets of Anderson's unbelievable output and presents a thoughtful progression of his life and art.With complete access to the Anderson family archives and the vaults of the Walter Anderson Museum of Art, this comprehensive volume brings together much of the artist's finest work as well as paintings and photographs which have never before been published. Also included with the purchase of this book are complimentary download links to the acclaimed documentary film and soundtrack. Walter Anderson: The Extraordinary Life and Art of The Islander is an eye-opening and inspiring book to be treasured and dipped into again and again.

Set against the most dramatic time in our species' history, The Dog Master tells the story of one tribe's struggle for survival and one extraordinary man's bond with a wolf--a friendship that changed mankind forever. Thirty thousand years ago, ice was storming the planet. Among the species forced out of the trees and onto the steppes by the advancing cold was modern man, who was both predator and prey.

Mankind stood on the cold brink of extinction...but they had a unique advantage over other species, a new technology--domesticated wolves.
