More stories, more action, more foolhardy hunting and fishing
poachers!Tom Chapin served as a Minnesota Game Warden for 29 years,
a job that was far more perilous and thrilling than most people
would ever expect. He was cussed at, chased, shot at, and nearly
run over. More Poachers Caught! is the follow-up to Tom's wildly
popular first book. It collects 30 new stories from throughout
Tom's career and from a few of Tom's friends. Dangerous,
spontaneous, and sometimes comedic, these true adventures bring
readers face to face with the problem of poaching. They are tales
of greed, selfishness, and hope. The short stories tell of some of
the most memorable poachers who were ever caught by a Northwoods
Game Warden-and some who got away. Hunters, anglers, and outdoors
enthusiasts of all ages will enjoy this fascinating book.
Poachers Caught is a collection of 35 stories defining the
exhilarating and harrowing 29-year career of Tom Chapin as a
Minnesota Game Warden. From the vividly detailed capture of illegal
night hunters to the culmination of major fish poaching cases,
Poachers Caught allows you to experience each riveting encounter as
if you were witness and participant.
