"Filled with nuggets of wisdom and provocative questions." --ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS

Rick Bass's dog, Colter, is the brown dog of the Yaak. Described by Bass as a creature almost mythic, the dog charges through the mountain valleys following the scent of game. In this book, Bass gives a history of his years with Colter--including vignettes about interactions with well-known writers Jim Harrison and Barry Lopez--as a way of understanding what is intuitive in himself and his quest to create art.
