What is The dark romance of Dian Fossey about?

Without scientific training but with abundant determination, Dian Fossey persuaded the eminent Louis Leakey to send her to Africa to study the last remaining mountain gorillas. <p>Fossey, always extreme, was what you call "hands on." She virtually lived with the gorillas, slowly earning their trust. However, the closer to anthropoids, the farther from humans. More militant each year, she antagonized friends and earned enemies. In the end they killed her.</p> <p>"Only the author's disciplined research, compassionate heart and inspired prose could have made us understand how one woman saved the animals that she loved so much." --Diane McMeekin, African Wildlife Foundation</p> <p>Harold Hayes, the former editor-in-chief of Esquire, uses the mystery of Dian Fossey's murder to tell the astonishing story of her remarkable life and complex, tenacious personality. </p>
