    The Man Who Talked to Bears
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 13, 2010*

Excellent (and probably the only) biography of Allen Hasselborg, a legendary bear hunter and self taught naturalist. Anyone interested in catching a glimpse of life in Alaska in the early 1900s is well advised to read this book. Hasselborg's evolution from a young, Alaska sourdough that began his career shooting bears for their hides, or as specimens for museums (1907 Alexander Expedition), to eventually deciding in his later years to not shoot bears at all if he could avoid it, is chronicled well by John R. Howe. Hasselborg was known to stop charging bears by speaking to them but it is also clear he had a gun close at hand at all times when dealing with them. It was also said by some that whenever he spoke to bears, they understood him. Many men considered him ornery while most women found him very charismatic and charming. All in all, a great book about a complex and very interesting character of Alaska.
