Retired Connecticut State Park Ranger and Conservation Police Officer Eric Johnson's career of over 20 years is outlined in State Park Ranger. Beginning with a section on the path to Eric's career, the book moves next to "War Stories." The stories include a three-day search for a missing youth in the remote woods of Connecticut, arrests for stolen vehicles, unusual warrant services, and a 2 MPH "foot pursuit" of a canoe. Also included are Eric's thoughts on the troubling problem of drug addiction, which even State Park Rangers encounter while on patrol. For those who are interested in pursuing a career as a law enforcement Ranger, Eric shares some suggestions on how to best position yourself as an applicant for the career. Eric's respect for the fields of recreation and conservation law enforcement are evident in these pages.
