Gorillas among Us: A Primate Ethnographer's Book of Days

#1125
Title: Gorillas among Us: A Primate Ethnographer's Book of Days
Author: Dawn Prince-Hughes
Year: 2001
Publisher: University of Arizona
Pages: 153

Though many of the events are presented again in Prince-Hughes's Songs of the Gorilla Nation: My Journey through Autism, it's still enjoyable to read this less-polished, less-personal account of her time as an intern observing gorillas at the zoo. For a better picture and deeper narrative, read Songs of the Gorilla Nation as well or instead.
