Publisher's Synopsis
The essays in this book by Stephen Santiago Reynolds run the gamut from whimsical, "Lucky to Make it this Far," to focused, "A Bird Killed on the Wing;" from comical, "My Friend Alton Ford," to contemplative, "Lines of Demarcation;" and from humorous, "Ol' Bob, Coon Dogs, and Burnt Coffee," to researched, "A Big Tree." Reynolds' career work in wildlife law enforcement throughout New Mexico and Alaska took him into the back areas of both states and serves as a perspective for many of these essays. He is a newspaper and magazine columnist and author of three other nonfiction books: Beyond the Killing Tree, A Journey of Discovery; From a Bush Wing, Notes of an Alaska Wildlife Trooper; Beyond the Killing Tree, A Journey of Discovery, Revisited; and a novel: Moon Dog Night, A Confederate Soldier in Virginia. All are available at Amazon.com.
