Maximilian Werner is the author of the award-winning essay collection Black River Dreams, the novel Crooked Creek, the memoir Gravity Hill, the memoir/natural history Evolved, the essay collection The Bone Pile, and the book of poetry Cold Blessings. When he is not fly fishing on one of his favorite western waters, or wrist-deep in the garden dirt, or searching the wild places of Montana for wolves and grizzlies, he is at home writing or in the classroom teaching and trying to help humans live up to their potential as a species.
