The Bear's Embrace

A True Story of Surviving a Grizzly Bear Attack

THE BEAR’S EMBRACE is a candid, moving, and beautifully written account of survival and recovery. Although grizzly attacks on humans are rare, they are often fatal, and Patricia’s reconstruction of the attack itself is vivid and disturbing. As medical professionals, Patricia and her husband bring a unique perspective to their time in hospital, and their observations from the other side of the fence are illuminating.
