Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Bill Callies was a Minnesota Game Warden who retired in 1980. He wrote 60 stories in this book. Some of the stories are funny, some are exciting and all are informative. They are all factual accounts that describe the job of a Minnesota Game Warden during the era from 1960 to 1980. Bill thought being a game warden was the best job in the world and he wrote wonderful stories of his adventures.
