Download or read book Tales of a Texas Game Warden written by Benny G. Richards and published by . This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Texas game wardens work alone much of the time in very rural out of the way and unnamed places. It is not uncommon for wardens to find themselves in situations where they are enforcing the law on uncooperative subjects who are armed. They are alone with no other officers in sight for miles. And, at a hidden hunting camp on some secluded ranch at midnight, no one could find them even if backup was available. This is when training, skill, experience, and luck come in. The skills and knowledge they possess, the conditions that they sometimes work under, and the uniqueness of the state they serve makes Texas State Game Wardens an elite group of law enforcement officers. For a quarter century the author was proud to be one of those game wardens. These are his stories. TALES OF A TEXAS GAME WARDEN is an opportunity for a reader to climb aboard and go on patrol with one of Texas' most experienced and well-known game wardens. In the woods and over the water, through daylight and darkness, sometimes deadly serious, sometimes just humorous, this thrilling collection of tales reveals what it is really like to wear the blue badge of a Texas Game Warden.

Download or read book Return to Warden s Grove written by Christopher Norment and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2008-04 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on three seasons of field research in the Canadian Arctic, Christopher Norment’s exquisitely crafted meditation on science and nature, wildness and civilization, is marked by bottomless prose, reflection on timeless questions, and keen observations of the world and our place in it. In an era increasingly marked by cutting-edge research at the cellular and molecular level, what is the role for scientists of sympathetic observation? What can patient waiting tell us about ourselves and our place in the world? His family at home in the American Midwest, Norment spends months on end living in isolation in the Northwest Territories, studying the ecology of the Harris’s Sparrow. Although the fourteenth-century German mystic Meister Eckhardt wrote, “God is at home, we are in the far country,” Norment argues that an intellectual, emotional, and spiritual “far country” can be found in the lives of animals and arctic wilderness. For Norment, “doing science” can lead to an enriched aesthetic and emotional connection to something beyond the self and a way to develop a sacred sense of place in a world that feels increasingly less welcoming, certain, and familiar.

Download or read book The Warden written by Anthony Trollope and published by Modernista. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quiet countryside of Barsetshire, controversy stirs within the tranquil walls of Hiram's Hospital, a charitable institution for elderly men. The source of contention lies in the generous income the warden Mr. Harding receives from the hospital's endowment, which some argue is excessive for his duties. As public opinion mounts against him, led by the zealous reformer John Bold, Mr. Harding finds himself torn between his sense of duty to the hospital's residents and the moral scrutiny of the broader community. Anthony Trollope's insightful portrayal of characters and moral dilemmas unfolds against a backdrop of pastoral beauty and societal scrutiny. The Warden is a timeless exploration of justice, compassion, and the clash between tradition and reform in a small English town, showcasing Trollope's mastery of psychological depth and social commentary. ANTHONY TROLLOPE [1815-1882] was an English novelist and civil servant. Among his most famous works is the series known as The Chronicles of Barsetshire, in which he delves into the intricacies of rural and ecclesiastical life.
Download or read book Tall Tales written by Steve Rogers and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tall Tales is a short peek into the sometimes exciting, often funny, and occasionally scary 33 year career of Washington Fish and Wildlife Police Officer Steve Rogers. From trapping beaver, raccoons, and cougars to herding elk on snowmobile to catching poachers, there were not many dull moments. Whether horse packing into the high country or running boat patrols on the Columbia River and undercover fishing patrols, there was always plenty of work to do. There was never a quiet deer or elk season in Central Washington, especially when there were antler restrictions involved. Rogers worked with a wide variety of people from fellow Washington Game Wardens and Biologists, to Forest Service Agents, and Officers with County, City, and State Agencies. He forged lasting friendships with many trappers, sportsmen, and fishermen. He also made a few enemies that had no sense of humor. There must be humor in this line of work. One final note - not a good idea to write your local Sheriff a ticket.
