In the face of centuries of annihilation campaigns employing poisons, gases, helicopters, and bioweapons, coyotes didn't just survive, they thrived, expanding across North America from Alaska to Florida and New York, and now, as this new edition explores, to South America as well. In the war between humans and coyotes, coyotes have won hands-down. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCoyote America\u003c\/i\u003e traces both the five-million-year-long biological story of coyotes, as well as their cultural evolution from preeminence in Native American religions to haplessness before the Road Runner. A deeply American tale, the story of the coyote in the American West and then across the entire country is a sort of Manifest Destiny in reverse, with a pioneering hero whose career holds up an uncanny mirror to the successes and failures of American expansionism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e An illuminating biography of an extraordinary animal, \u003ci\u003eCoyote America\u003c\/i\u003e is one of the great epics of our time. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dan Flores\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Basic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.6lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781541608535\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRevised Edition\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45133425213577,"sku":"9781541608535","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_aac63686-8c5f-4f55-91ad-f88731b2d9cb.jpg?v=1767678403","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/coyote-america-a-natural-and-supernatural-history-9781541608535","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
