Stories Rabbits Tell
A Natural and Cultural History of a Misunderstood Creature

"No other book has depicted rabbit behavior in such a meaningful way, while pointing out incongruities in human thinking that allow such high or low regard for the same animal. This is an extraordinary book, long overdue and extremely informative. It contributes to human awareness of the nature and position of rabbits and should be read by everyone who cares about animals of any kind." -Marinell Harriman, Founder, House Rabbit Society
