 Enjoyable memoirs of a game warden and federal wildlife agent January 18, 2008
I really enjoy Terry Grosz's books. As I've discussed in more detail elsewhere, he's a natural storyteller. I expected the quality of his books to decline as time went on - - surely, the man must run out of stories at some point! However, that hasn't happened so far.
These later memoirs, such as Sword for Mother Nature and No Safe Refuge, do tend to run together a bit. Earlier memoirs have clear links to the chronology of Grosz's career, as state game warden, federal agent, and then supervisor in the Fish and Wildlife Service. These books collect stories in a more haphazard, less thematic way.
For that reason, I'd recommend that you start at the beginning with Grosz's "Wildlife Wars," followed by "For Love of Wildness" and "Defending our Wildlife Heritage." (I think his weakest book is his second one, "For Love of Wildness," so it's OK to skip that one.) If you enjoyed those, then keep reading - - Sword for Mother Nature and No Safe Refuge are both worthy additions to the series.
 Good Stories, a little crude December 31, 2007
All of this author's books are good stories of a federal lawman protecting the outdoors and the wildlife that inhabits it. It is a good read. My only complaint is the frequent cursing that is throughout each story. I prefer a cleaner story, but it is what it is.
