R E KrausKnown affectionately as Grandpa Bear, the author of Grandpa Bear's Story: Through The Eye Of A Bear, now returns with a new and compelling voice in LONG CALL - BLACK WEATHER. Born in York, Pennsylvania, Bear's journey has woven through the natural wold, the mechanical and philosophical realms, and the profound work of physical and emotional healing.With academic roots in Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, and Physics, and a life shaped by mechanics, nature, and introspection, Bear brings a unique lens to his writing-one steeped in the rhythm of the earth and the resilience of the human spirit. His work in physical therapy has deepened his understanding of healing, both physical and spiritual.In this latest offering, Bear expands his storytelling beyond the environmental fables of his earlier work, venturing into deeper themes of survival, connection, and transformation. Still guided by the symbolic strength of the Bear-protector, guide, and healer-his writing invites readers to listen closely, feel deeply, and perhaps, answer a long call of their own.
