Chasing Giants: My Adventures Photographing Grizzly Bears - Volume One

By: Starks, Cynthia

In the remote wilderness of Wyoming, Montana, Canada, and the Alaskan backcountry, Cynthia Starks has spent the last fifteen years face to face with one of the most awe-inspiring creatures on Earth: grizzly bears.

What began as a way of overcoming her fear turned first into understanding, and then into lifelong devotion. Chasing Giants is the raw, intimate story of that transformation told through breathtaking encounters, near-misses, quiet revelations, and hard-won trust in both animal and self. With a camera in hand and a heart pulled toward remote locations, Cynthia takes readers deep into bear country, capturing not just the strength and majesty of the giants she photographs, but also the soul-deep connection formed in a shared glance.

From iconic bears like 399 and Holly to anonymous coastal and inland mothers raising cubs against all odds, Cynthia's portraits tell stories of survival, motherhood, and resilience-echoes that mirror her own journey through injury, recovery, and the enduring call of the wild.
