DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Sam Moody is a rookie game warden, fresh from the academy. He has high hopes for his career with the Fish and Game Department and believes in the preservation of nature. However, as he starts his new job, he begins to suspect something is not right with certain personnel – but being the new guy, is not quite sure who he can trust. Sam soon comes to learn something illegal is afoot when he’s paired up with a seasoned warden. One day while on patrol Sam discovers an illegal tree stand in an animal safe zone. He is first surprised, then suspicious, when his new partner is not concerned. Animal poaching is a big money enterprise, embraced by greedy men with guns, so Sam needs to tread carefully as he tries to identify the guilty parties. The people he suspects would not hesitate to kill Sam if he gets too close but Sam is honor bound to do his job right - even if it involves bringing down other wardens...and maybe his own Fish and Game career.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Of all law enforcement officers, game wardens inspire the most awe in the mind of the public. Working day and night, often in challenging terrain and bad weather, game wardens typically operate alone in remote areas and must understand the natural rhythms and cycles of the creatures and ecosystems they protect, all while encountering and sometimes interacting with people who are usually armed. Outdoors writer Jerald Horst spent one year riding on patrol with game wardens in the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. In riveting episodes, he chronicles their adventures, providing an up-close view of this demanding job and the band of men who take it on. From the piney woods of the northwestern part of the state to the soggy Mississippi River delta and beyond to the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Horst accompanied dozens of wildlife agents, observing them, asking questions, sometimes sitting for hours with no action, and occasionally fearing for his life, as in the case of one speedboat chase. His candid observations show that the work of agents is often mentally and physically challenging, sometimes tedious, and -- more often than would be expected -- humorous, but never dull. Whether wardens are conducting routine checks of law-abiding sportsmen or in pursuit of suspected poachers, the unanticipated is the norm. A seemingly ordinary stop can turn deadly in an instant. As one officer told Horst "complacency can get you killed." More than a job, serving as a game warden is a way of life, and Horst relates how the agents he met came to their calling. An objective look at a heroic career, Game Warden offers an enthralling portrait of both the profession and the men behind the badge.
