About This Item
For 12 years the author lived in some of the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working as a ranger- a job she loved. She chaperoned baby sea turtles, pursued bad guys on horseback, won arguments with bears, and slept with a few too man rattlesnakes. Hell yeah, it was the best job in the world! Fortunately, Andrea survived. In this candid and wryly humorous account of her and others' extraordinary careers, Lankford unveils a world in which park rangers struggle to maintain their idealism in the face of death, disillusionment, and the loss of a comrade killed holding the thin line of protecting the park from the people, the people from the park, and the people from each other.
