This 20th Anniversary Edition of David Petersen's 1991 natural-history cult classic features new cover art by landscape master Thomas Aquinas Daly; original interior art by America's leading woodcut artist, Michael McCurdy; a foreword by world-renowned deer and antler expert Valerius Geist; and is revised and updated throughout. Well-researched chapters cover the antlers, evolution, natural histories, and social lives of each of North America's five deer species (white-tailed and mule deer, elk, moose, and caribou), as well as the extinct "Irish elk," which carried antlers as wide as an SUV is long. Throughout, Petersen's science is woven seamlessly into the author's personal-narrative natural history, taking readers beyond mere facts and figures and into the field for personal encounters with antlers and the animals that wear them. Also included are a ibliography, deer taxonomy chart, and a fascinating interview with antler expert Dr. Valerius Geist. "Whether you're a hunter, biologist, wildlife photographer or just a casual observer of nature, Racks is must reading if you're interested in the phenomena of antler growth and development." - Gary Wolfe (former CEO Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation) "When field observations are as well described as David Petersen's are in Racks, they open up new insights even to scientists." -Dr. Valerius Geist (from his foreword to Racks)

Very soft, not firm at all
This pillow is very floppy and not firm at all. It is quite large and I was surprised at the size. My dog has taken a liking to it and decided it's now her new dig bed, which is fine by me, because it's really too soft for my liking. If you like soft pillows then this is for you. If you require something with a bit more support then you won't enjoy this pillow.

Soft and supportive
I recently purchased the this pillow and I am happy with the quality and comfort it provides. Pillow is soft, plush, and supportive without being too firm. The down alternative fill offers the balance of fluffiness and structure, making them ideal for all sleep positions. Whether I’m sleeping on my back, side, or stomach, these pillows adapt beautifully and keep me comfortable throughout the night. They’re also breathable and skin-friendly, which is a huge plus for anyone with sensitive skin. After using them, I wake up feeling well-rested and free of neck stiffness. I like it.

Pillow
These DIORIS pillows are a game-changer! I’ve tried many pillows over the years, but these are by far the best. The down alternative fill is incredibly soft yet supportive, providing just the right amount of fluffiness without feeling too firm or too soft. I sleep on my side, and these pillows cradle my head and neck perfectly, giving me the support I need for a restful night. They’re breathable and skin-friendly, which is great since I tend to get hot while I sleep. The queen size is just right for my bed, and the pillows maintain their shape night after night. They feel like luxury hotel pillows! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable, supportive, and durable pillow.

this pillow does work
For months my neck had been brothering me every morning when I woke up. Figured it was stress and I always planned on getting a massage. But I never did it. I ended up seeing this pillow on Amazon and got it. It was almost an instant 180. My neck pain is gone! This pillow is stuffed very full but isn't super firm. It's a bit hard to describe. The seams are well sewn and the pillow has held up very well for a week now. No weird smells or any type of red flag that I found. It's easy to flip and reshape in an instant.

Comfortable to use with firm support
This set of queen-size pillows has a great balance between softness and support. The down alternative fill feels plush and comfortable. The pillows also provide enough firmness to support the neck and shoulders. A better sleep quality achieved with less tossing and turning. For sleeping on side, back, or stomach, the pillows keep their shape and offer consistent comfort. A good choice for the improvement of sleep quality with more comfort.
