Whether following Tom on a summer boat patrol or on a frigid winter stakeout, you'll feel as if you are riding along with him on patrol as he catches deer poachers, fish trappers, and fur thieves. You will experience Tom's true story accounts of fighting wild fires, water rescues, and tragedies occurring in the outdoors. It contains the accounts and the observations of one of Indiana's finest conservation officers of all time. Tom's career was chock-full of exciting and interesting cases, and he recalls many of them in his book. He was a true game warden at heart and a man who became somewhat of a myth, or "rural" legend.
