She gave me a cold hard stare and then laid her ears back. I could actually see the hair rise up on the back of her neck just before she put her head down and charged. Barely into my second month as a Baxter State Park ranger and a big animal was angry and running straight at me. She could kill me or cause serious injury with one flail of her hooves. This was surreal. I was a ranger, for Pete's sake. How was I going to explain this in my weekly report? The Bear Dogs of Katahdin is Steve Tetreault s true account of his time spent as a ranger in Maine s Baxter State Park, a wilderness area of over 204,000 acres. In this collection of anecdotal stories, Steve describes his life as a new ranger in a strange place, meeting new people--and learning about his wild neighbors. If you are a lover of the outdoors in general, or perhaps Maine and Baxter State Park in particular, you will appreciate Steve s depiction of a park ranger s life from the point of view of a young and idealistic person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 29, 2007\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44244188364851,"sku":"9781425796570","price":98.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/2191\/6467\/files\/OVhjJvOpb9781425796570.webp?v=1777640781","url":"https:\/\/thereadinghousebookcompany.com\/products\/the-bear-dogs-of-katahdin-and-other-recollections-of-a-baxter-state-park-ranger-hardcover","provider":"The Reading House Book Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
