Come face-to-face with lions, tigers, and more in this gorgeous retrospective collection of narrated images from a renowned National Geographic photographer.

170 photographs, the best of Steve Winter's award-winning images of the world's charismatic felines, jump off the pages of this powerful large-format book.

National Geographic photographer Steve Winter has spent his career photographing big cats around the world, from the fierce jaguars of Brazil's Pantanal to the elusive Himalayan snow leopard. His photographs astound; his stories, even more so. In Big Cats, Winter and wildlife journalist Sharon Guynup share experiences behind the lens.

In chapters on every key species--cougar, jaguar, leopard, snow leopard, tiger, and lion--readers will witness the power of Winter's work, including uplifting stories of how his photographs have made a difference and powered important conservation efforts on behalf of these mighty creatures, including:

  • The famous photo of P-22, the cougar in front of the Hollywood sign, which inspired a wildlife crossing spanning 10 lanes of two L.A. highways
  • Photos of tiger abuse and trafficking behind a tourist trap in a Thai temple, which led the government to shut down the business
  • Photos of American lion and tiger amusement venues, dangerous to visitors and inhumane to the cats involved, which prompted exposés including the Tiger King documentary and led to a U.S. law banning big cats as pets

Winter and Guynup's work has changed the world--and it continues to awe and inspire us. But you don't have to be a serious-minded conservationist to be pulled into their new book. All animal lovers--especially those who love cats, big and small--are invited to look deeply into the eyes and lives of these iconic species, chronicled in this beautiful keepsake book.
