In 1963, an occupational therapist from Kentucky, in uncertain health and spirits, traveled to central Africa in the quixotic hope of seeing a mountain gorilla in its natural habitat. Dian Fossey had read everything she could about the reclusive and much-feared animal, and she returned from her trip convinced that most of the books were wrong.
During her seven-week stay in Africa, Fossey had a chance encounter with the famed primatologists Mary and Louis Leakey, who encouraged her to follow her dream of living among the mountain gorillas and learning their ways. In 1967 she did just that, setting up a camp on the slopes of the 14,000-foot Virunga Volcanoes of Rwanda and studying four gorilla families there. Although it took them some time to accept Fossey's presence among them, she was immediately impressed by their peaceful nature and by their generous, guileless behavior--so unlike the images found in popular culture.
But, Fossey discovered, despite their peaceable way of life, the gorillas had many enemies in the form of poachers who hunted them for their hands, skins, and heads--ghastly remains sold to the tourist market. Much of Fossey's thoughtful but often rightly angry memoir Gorillas in the Mist is a well-reasoned plea for the protection of the gorillas and the suppression of the poachers' black market. That argument found a wide audience when her book was published in 1983, but Fossey's work remains unfinished: she was murdered, probably by those very poachers, in 1985, and today there are fewer than 650 mountain gorillas in the wild. To read Gorillas in the Mist is a first step for anyone concerned with their preservation, and that of other wild species everywhere. --Gregory McNamee
Book Description
One of the most important books ever written about our connection to the natural world, GORILLAS IN THE MIST is the riveting account of Dian Fossey's thirteen years in a remote African rain forest with the greatest of the great apes. Fossey's extraordinary efforts to ensure the future of the rain forest and its remaining mountain gorillas are captured in her own words and in candid photographs of this fascinating endangered species. As only she could, Fossey combined her personal adventure story with groundbreaking scientific reporting in an unforgettable portrait of one of our closest primate relatives. Although Fossey's work ended tragically in her murder, GORILLAS IN THE MIST remains an invaluable testament to one of the longest-running field studies of primates and reveals her undying passion for her subject.

Vivid account of everyday lives of gorilla families.......2007-07-06
This book details the everyday lives of the a few mountain gorilla families as observed by Dian Fossey. She lived in the forest of Rwanda and Congo for more than a decade to study the gorillas.
Gorillas, one of humankind's closest relatives, are highly socialized animals. They live in groups that are formed and strengthened by kinship ties. Each individual has a role in the group and needs to constantly resolve conflicts within the group. Since each animal was given a name, the gorilla observations are like their stories. And indeed, their mating behavior, ways to enhance and defend their social status, and their heroism when defending the group against aggression, are much like that of a human society.
Dian Fossey pointed out the injustice done to the gorillas when their young were captured for display in a zoo. The capture of one baby gorilla often results in the death of several other gorillas (in many cases the whole family) as gorillas will fight to death to defend their young.
The book is technical with numerous references. It also entertaining and thought provoking.
Fascinating and Wonderful.......2006-12-27
Gorillas in the Mist is a fascinating and wonderful book about Dian Fossey and her studies of the mountain gorillas. Dian went to Africa in the 60's and set up camp there to study and trail the gorillas. In this book she recounts how she decided to study gorillas and how she got to follow her dream. The book follows the various gorilla groups she follows and the behaviors that she was able to observe.
B/c Dian was not a classically trained anthropologist a lot of her observations of the gorillas are compared to what human actions or feelings these may mirror. The book also is a highlights sort of book that summarizes her almost 2 decades studying these amazing animals. Although I found the book highly enjoyable and interesting I did get tried of it in the end, b/c the stories about the gorillas seemed repetitious.
Dian does touch up on the poaching and problems she had but I don't think in her novel she emphasized how dangerous the poachers were and how dangerous her actions to thwart them were. She was murdered and probably by these poachers.
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in Dian Fossey and gorillas. It is a fascinating look at gorillas in their natural environment and a woman whose quest it was to save them.
Murder in the Mist Solved?.......2006-07-11
After more than 15 years, the mastermind behind the gruesome and infamous murder of renowned gorilla researcher and protector, Dr. Dian Fossey whose life was portrayed in the 1988 movie "Gorillas in the Mist," may finally be in custody in Belgium. Protais Zigiranyirazo, the former Governor of the Ruhengeri province in Rwanda, brother-in-law of the assassinated Rwandan president, and one of the country's most wanted criminals for his creation of "death squads," which killed 800,000 in 1994, was captured by Belgian police while trying to flee Kenya on June 9, 2001.
Dr. Fossey observed the gorillas for 18 years in the Ruhengeri province when she was brutally murdered in her hut on December 27, 1985. Known for her vigilant pursuit of poachers, Dr. Fossey had made many enemies including Zigiranyirazo, who, it was reported, she was about to announce publicly as being behind poaching and smuggling rings of endangered species and gold in and out of Rwanda. Soon after her murder, Rwandan officials arrested one of her trackers for the murder. He then "apparently" committed suicide while in prison, but diplomats in Kigali believe he was secretly hanged before he could talk. Several months later, Wayne McGuire, her American research assistant, was accused by the Government of her murder but escaped capture when the US embassy warned him, enabling him to leave the country.
For years the FBI was unable to approach its prime suspect, Zigiranyirazo, because of his political connections, but that all changed when he was arrested in Belgium for war crimes.
The saga of Dian Fossey's murder may soon be resolved, but her work for the gorillas she fought so hard to preserve still goes on. The following story, reprinted from the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International, is of Beetsme, one of the original gorillas observed by Dr. Fossey over 25 years ago.
Beautiful and utterly captivating.......2005-08-03
"Gorillas In The Mist" is more than just a scientific journal, it is a window into the world of nature itself. Dian Fossey paints a clear picture of her beloved mountain gorillas and brings forth her passion, through words, to save them from extinction. She went against the odds and changed the way we think about gorillas. She is a heroine in my eyes.
And to the reviewer who stated that Dian Fossey went against the laws of science by touching and becoming emotionally invovled with the gorillas, the only way that you're ever going to actually be able to really get to know something or someone is to become emotionally invovled. That's just common sense to figure that out. With that said, Gorillas In the Mist is a wonderful book and I highly recommend it to everyone.
Utterly Fascinating.......2004-11-01
I picked this up on a whim. I had a gift card to a local book store and remembered finding the movie adaptation quite entertaining.
The result was a character study that blew me away. The subject matter of the mountain gorillas Fossey studied was only part of it. The person that came out in book was the true catch for me. Dian Fossey was as human as anyone else. A truly driven and flawed person who impacted science across the world.
Book Description
Deep in the volcano country of central Africa live some of the rarest, most intriguing animals on earth -- the mountain gorillas. Here, in the mist-shrouded forests, Dian Fossey courageously dedicated her life to studying them. Here she patiently waited until the luminous-eyed gorillas accepted her presence, hugged her, and loved her...while she fought for their survival against poachers, callous researchers, zoo collectors, and local bureaucrats. And here, surrounded by these enemies, she died, mysteriously and brutally murdered.Now, one of the world's most respected naturalist writers draws for the first time ever on Dian Fossey's personal writings to reveal the true story of a magnificent obsession...one woman's enormous empathy for a highly intelligent, desperately endangered animal -- and how it ruled her life, her work, and her heart.

"A woman who gave herself completely to those she loved.".......2005-01-24
When it came to dealing with people, Dian Fossey was sometimes her own worst enemy, but her dedication to saving the African mountain gorilla and its habitat in Rwanda is indisputable. Describing himself as an "editorial collaborator," rather than as a biographer, Farley Mowat assembles Fossey's story from her never-before-printed journals and private papers, inserting them directly into the book in boldface so she can tell her own story. From her founding of the Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda in 1967, until her murder there in December, 1985, Fossey battled to save "those she loved" from poaching, abduction, and dismemberment.
Throughout her eighteen years at Karisoke, Fossey studied organized groups of gorillas to whom she became so familiar that they would even touch her. As fierce and protective of her own "turf" as a silverback, however, she refused to bend to the exigencies of the political climate and funding requirements and made innumerable enemies. When local herdsmen exerted their age-old rights to graze cattle on "her" mountain, Fossey shot the cattle. When poachers hurt her gorillas, she pursued them, even kidnapping the four-year-old son of one of them to force his surrender. When students at her own Center disagreed with her, she could be brutal.
Fossey also fought local officials, park guards, and conservators who took bribes and staged events in order to protect their payoffs. She battled conservation organizations which wanted to get her funds, rival researchers who wanted to take over her project, and governmental officials who saw tourism in the park as a source of wealth and graft. Always fighting with ferocity, she made no effort to see another point of view or compromise. Her unsolved murder in 1985, by someone who knew the layout of her cabin, could have been by someone from any of these alienated groups.
Mowat presents Fossey as a lonely warrior who never found personal peace, a woman who was instrumental in drawing pubic attention to the plight of the mountain gorilla but who was less sucessful than she had hoped. As he points out in his Epilogue, her cause has been continued by some of the researchers who studied with her. Two of those, Amy Vedder and Bill Weber, continue the story of the gorillas from the death of Fossey through 1993's disastrous Rwandan Civil War. Their book, In the Kingdom of Gorillas: Fragile Species in a Dangerous Land, reflects a more conciliatory viewpoint than that of Fossey. Mary Whipple
A sympathetic portrait of a complicated woman.......2000-10-13
Another engrossing and fascinating Mowat title, another Mowat "must read", "Woman in the Mists" is the sympathetic biography of a woman whose work gave us a window into the world of the mountain gorilla, a species to whose protection and conservation she was devoted. By alternating excerpts from her diary entries and personal letters with his own descriptive text, Mowat brings Dian Fossey, a powerfully willed and often abrasive woman, to life. Her youthful years, young adulthood, her fateful meeting with Louis Leakey, her romantic involvements and disappointments, her first contacts with the gorillas and the years of her work and struggle are portrayed with humanity and affection. The tale is enormously enriched by her own words. She struggled indomitably against self-serving African bureaucrats, indigenous herdsmen and hunter-gatherers, antagonistic forces that gained strength against her in the fields of primatology and philanthropy, and her own gradually deteriorating health largely the result of a powerful smoking addiction.
But her work and her happiness were plagued by male academics and agents of philanthropic organizations who got caught up in a web of calumny and distrust motivated by primatologists who were seriously bent out of shape by her abrasiveness and who felt they could avenge themselves by vilifying her, possibly abetted by society's undercurrent of misogyny. Had there been no vilification, she may never have been killed, as her fatal enemy, probably an African, no doubt took strength from knowing how much she was hated by, for example, the American and European agents of the Mountain Gorilla Project. Mowat provides the reader a chilling view of Fossey's victimization, but never identifies the sexist element which seems apparent to this male reviewer.
Fossey survived all the victimization because of her extraordinary strength and a powerfully motivating love for the gorillas and the entire eden-like natural world in which she lived. She had serious blind spots: her obliviousness to her abrasiveness, her hatred for the National Park's Tutsi herders and pygmy hunter-gatherers, even before the latter began killing her beloved gorillas (whole gorilla family groups, in order to capture a single infant for the zoo trade and skulls for the tourist souvenir trade), and her (and Mowat's) use of the racist epithet "wog" with impunity toward Africans who she hated, though she shared genuine bonds of love with the Africans who worked with her as trackers and poaching patrollers, and evidenced no other racist feeling. Mowat's record of Fossey's life is a powerful, shocking, revealing and loving account.
A wonderful written book.......2000-09-01
Farley Mowat performed an excellent service when he wrote this book. Dian Fossey was a woman of great character, confidence, courage, determination, and conviction. Her life was lived for what she found to be a greater cause and the world is that much worse off without her. This book did an excellent job of showing the reader who Dian Fossey really was and what she really went through. I recommend it to anyone. It is well worth reading.
I fell in love with this book!.......2000-04-18
Read this book, and you will feel like you know the real Dian Fossey. Personal letters, journal entries all give insight to her life as a living, breathing human being who had many friends (human and non-human). Her passion for life is inspirational! This is a must read, and also an excellent book to read for school projects!
Wonderful!!.......1999-03-22
This Book contains the interisting life of Dian Fossey from her bith to her dearh
Book Description
n December 1985, Dr. Dian Fossey's body was discovered at Karisoke, the research station she had established high in the Virunga mountains of Africa, and where she dedicated 18 years of her life to the study and preservation of the endangered mountain gorilla. In that time Dian had struggled against ill health, opposition from the authorities, poachers, personal tragedy, and the isolation of Karisoke's remote location. Her strength of will, her outspoken nature, and her all-consuming passion for the gorillas earned her renown and respect and helped bring the plight of these magnificent creatures and her groundbreaking observations on their behavior to the world's attention.
No One Loved Gorillas More is a powerful reminder of what Dian was fighting for. These imposing, intelligent yet shy creatures are dramatically captured in photographs by Bob Campbell, who worked closely with Dian for several years. And compelling letters written by Dian herself bring to life her fearless spirit, and the trials, setbacks, and joys of her years spent at Karisoke.
Published in association with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and enhanced with details of the gorilla families she loved so much, this heartfelt, lively, and dramatic book tells Dian's story in her own words, providing a unique perspective of a unique woman.
Foreword by Dr. Jane Goodall.

Dedicated Woman.......2005-08-04
Diane Fossey has been one of my female science heroes ever since I was a little girl. This book gives an interesting view of Diane as a person. She was super dedicated to the Gorillas, but also had many personal demons. If you wanted an introspective view of this legend, I recommend this beautiful book.
Beautiful Book About a Beautiful Person.......2005-05-20
The words "No One Loved Gorillas More" are the words put on Dian Fossey's tombstone after she was murdered. This book is her eulogy. It is composed of letters she wrote between 1966 and her death two days after Christmas, 1985. The letters are combined with more than a hundred color photographs of she and a reverential story of her life by journalist Camilla de la Bedoyere.
Dian spent most of her adult life in the study of the mountain gorilla. She loved those animals more than life herself, and it was her dedicated attempts to preserve them and protect their future that lead to her unexplained killing.
Her legacy lives on. Even with the tremendous upheavals in Rwanda, with the killing of a million or more people, the numbers of wild gorillas is growing. It can only be hoped that this book will help more people to understand what Dian stood and died for.

Light Shining Through the Mist.......2005-02-21
I think this book was pretty interesting on how she lived a lot of her life helping gorillas. She wrecked poachers traps and learned to live somewhat like a gorilla. I would be very interested to read about her murder and why it happpened. She was a very brave women and lived very simply, yet she loved it. I thought she did a great thing.

A Nature Lover's Delight.......2001-06-08
I would have given this book 5 stars except for one problem. It really needs a pronunciation guide. Even adults will have difficulty pronouncing some of the unfamiliar animals' names. That said, all else is wonderful. The illustrations give a real feel for the forest habitat and its inhabitants. The story line describes typical activities of the various animals. It is like watching a PBS documentary on wildlife! In the back of the book there is a globe of the world, with the appropriate area spotlighted, and a one page blurb about the Virunga Mountains which is directed towards adults. Then there is a beautiful four page spread of the rain forest. On the fold-over pages to the four page spread are 32 different illustrations of plants and animals that live in the forest. A beautiful & informative book. I am eager to also read the other books in this series.

From the supplier: Africa's few remaining mountain gorillas are in anger of extinction, in large part due to the civil war in Rwanda. Some 10 gorillas have already been killed since the start of the conflict. Refugees are also starting to invade the areas long considered as the animals' habitat.

It is inciteful, wonderfully funny and filled with practical advise for the bedroom to make it a fun filled room for men and women. This book contains page after page of good sound advise on relationships, and how to increase your power to make the time you spend making love worthwhile for both partners. It is written in plain english and is for both men and women. It covers almost every area of sexual realtionships thatyou can think of from afterplay(not just foreplay here), to bisexuality. It covers anatomy,arousal,attitudes,stimulation,condoms,desire,male sexual desires and problems,fantasies, female desires and needs, fears, guilts, intimacy, menopause,orgasism,sensuality, toys, teenage sex, and almost everything else you can think of about sex.
