Book Description
Imagine a world with few security systems in place. No fences, no locks, no witnesses. A place where property of immense, yet incalculable and irreplaceable value, is laying around within easy reach of all persons, good and bad. No vaults, automatic door locks, or security cameras. A place where greed and easy profit tempt all. Ethical hunters and anglers can see it, more importantly they feel it. Clearly, many public administrators cannot.Imagine this place, guarded only by about 120 men and women in the state of Washington, armed only with inadequate and ever-changing laws to carry the entire conservation burden. Their task is enormous and success is elusive.This was my worldThese are my stories

Confessions of an Urban Fish and Wildlife Officer in Washington State

ISBN: 9781670793515
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
During the author's thirty-nine years with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, he was involved in more wildlife violation contacts than any active officer. He never promoted, not because of a lack of talent, but because becoming a sergeant would have taken him away from his beloved home in Olympia Washington.As a field trainer to many new officers he provided his perspective and wisdom. He humbly shared all of his many mistakes and lessons learned and continues to do so.He is now retired and enjoying life with his wife Crissy, on their forty acre swamp. A true urban paradise...with deer, bear, waterfowl and a wonderful lake filled with non-native fish....And that will have to do.

In 1950, when he commissioned the first edition of The Armed Forces Officer, Secretary of Defense George C. Marshall told its author, S.L.A.

Newton and the Counterfeiter
Author: Thomas Levenson
Publisher: Faber & Faber
ISBN: 0571265758
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Already famous throughout Europe for his theories of planetary motion and gravity, Isaac Newton decided to take on the job of running the Royal Mint. And there, Newton became drawn into a battle with William Chaloner, the most skilful of counterfeiters, a man who not only got away with faking His Majesty's coins (a crime that the law equated with treason), but was trying to take over the Mint itself. But Chaloner had no idea who he was taking on. Newton pursued his enemy with the cold, implacable logic that he brought to his scientific research. Set against the backdrop of early eighteenth-century London with its sewers running down the middle of the streets, its fetid rivers, its packed houses, smoke and fog, its industries and its great port, this dark tale of obsession and revenge transforms our image of Britain's greatest scientist.

Tales of a Texas Game Warden
Author: Benny G. Richards
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780578903804
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
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.
