SynopsisA lifelong hunter, J. Y. Jones has harvested every species and subspecies of big-game animal in North America, including a ten-foot brown bear. But the polar bear was problematic, primarily because of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 (MMPA). In addition to prohibiting a sport hunt for the Alaskan polar bear, this law also prohibited United States citizens from importing polar bears harvested elsewhere. Convinced that such policies and restrictions were misguided and damaging, Jones embarked on a six-year odyssey to prove his point to government officials. This is the story of the endless obstacles, the pervasive bureaucracy, the faithful allies, and the triumphs and the setbacks encountered on his quest. Through it all he was ever buoyed by his working theme for this project: Act as if it were impossible to fail.
