Send a Ranger is the true story of one man’s dream to live and work as a ranger in our national parks. Author Tom Habecker began his 32-year career with the National Park Service as a student intern at Gettysburg National Military Park while earning a degree in park administration at Penn State University. The book details Tom’s progression from novice to journeyman park ranger, working in Yosemite, Glacier, and Denali National Parks. The book is full of exciting adventures, including search and rescue incidents, criminal investigations, grizzly bear maulings, backcountry horse patrols, darting and trapping problem bears, providing advanced emergency medical care, fire-fighting, winter survival, flying in aircraft in mountainous terrain, living in the Alaska wilderness and much more. These accounts are enhanced by verbatim entries from Tom’s daily journals. Written in an informal and sometimes humorous style, the book details the evolution of training, technology, and skills that today’s park rangers must have to perform their challenging job. The book also describes the challenges and rewards of living and raising children in national parks. Follow Tom’s children as they grow up in places most people only dream about. You will learn what it’s like living in a house that receives over 250” of snow, annually cutting six cords of wood for heat, residing in a remote one-room cabin, and driving 130 miles one-way to town in the harsh Alaska winter. Living in a national park offers experiences like no other. Peek behind the scenes and experience the daily life of a national park ranger and his family.

For twelve years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved. She chaperoned baby sea turtles on their journey to sea. She pursued bad guys on her galloping patrol horse. She jumped into rescue helicopters bound for the heart of the Grand Canyon. She won arguments with bears. She slept with a few too many rattlesnakes. Hell yeah, it was the best job in the world! Fortunately, Andrea survived it. In this graphic and yet surprisingly funny 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 while holding that thin green line between protecting the park from the people, the people from the park, and the people from each other. Ranger Confidential is the story behind the scenery of the nation’s crown jewels—Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Great Smokies, Denali. In these iconic landscapes, where nature and humanity constantly collide, scenery can be as cruel as it is redemptive.

Book about the National Parks by HORACE M. ALBRIGHT AND FRANK J. TAYLOR. Originally published in 1928. PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION 1946: THE satisfaction and pleasure we have had in the continuing acceptance of this book by visitors to the national parks and related preserves, both scenic and historic, have prompted us to attempt a thorough revision for those who will travel about our country in the post war era. Since the revision in the early thirties, the growth of interest in the conservation of natural resources, including national park features, has been phenomenal. There have been important extensions of park reservations, and many new ones have been added to the system. Thus the editing we have undertaken has had to be extensive. The new book, therefore, contains much information not included in earlier editions, and the arrangement of factual data has been changed to make it more easily available to those who would use the volume for reference purposes in planning trips. This has been done we hope without sacrificing in any respect the prime objective of Oh, Ranger I to preserve for the traveler some of the atmosphere of the wild places, the old places, the frontiers which have long beckoned so many folks to the parks for their summer va cations. We appreciate the many understanding friends the book has made for the National Park Service and for us. We hope this new work which our publishers have produced will bring equally gratifying results. H. M. A. FJ. T. A WORD OF INTRODUCTION: From the first edition of Oh, Ranger To me no picture of the national parks is complete upless it includes the rangers, the Dudes, the Sage brushers, and the Savages. I like to picture the thou sands of people gathered about the park campfires, asking questions of the rangers. In fact, I like to be at the camp fire myself, and listen to the thousands of questions asked about the parks and their wild life. Especially am I in terested in the replies of the rangers. These men have be come keen students of human nature. In their brief, in formal talks, they have learned to anticipate many of the questions of the visitors. I like the idea of this book, Oh, Ranger It tells the story of the parks in the simple, informal style of the rangers. It gives the rangers the credit due them for their fine work in guarding the national parks and preserving them in their primeval beauty. It breathes the spirit of the people who belong to the parks, who make possible the parks as they are today. They are a fine, earnest, intelligent, and public-spirited body of men, the rangers. Though small in number, their influence is large. Many and long are the duties heaped upon their shoulders. If a trail is to be blazed, it is send a ranger. If an animal is floundering in the snow, a ranger is sent to pull him out if a bear is in the hotel, if a fire threatens a forest, if someone is to be saved, it is send a ranger. If a Dude wants to know the why of Natures ways, If a Sagebrusher is puzzled about a road, his first thought is, ask a ranger. Everything the ranger knows, he will tell you, except about himself. Now Oh, Ranger tells you about him. The national parks are more than the storehouses of Natures rarest treasures. They are the playlands of the people, wonderlands easily accessible to the rich and the humble alike...
