Kade Holley, Forest Ranger Vol. III

The Kade Holley saga continues as the Forest Ranger experiences adventures related to managing and protecting the natural resource gems of this country - the National Forests. This third volume of the Kade Holley series again includes five stories: 1) Kade, the forester, takes a soil scientist and a hydrologist on a field trip to the Monongahela National Forest's remote Blister Swamp in Pocahontas County, West Virginia. Their mission to collect data is interrupted by a dangerous and unanticipated event; 2) Kade uses his position as a forester on the Chattahoochee National Forest in the mountains of north Georgia to convince an Atlanta TV station to select him as part of a promotional effort to bat against the Braves' All-Star pitcher Phil Niekro; 3) Kade is invited to speak to a high school biology class in Ohio and talk about some of his most interesting and unusual encounters over the years with various bird species; 4) Kade leads an effort to have the Marietta Unit of the Wayne National Forest in Ohio selected to provide the Christmas Tree for the U.S. Capitol in 1987; 5) And finally, Kade has several interesting experiences while working on northern Minnesota's Superior National Forest, including meeting two famous Minnesotans and surviving a harrowing boat ride across Snowbank Lake during a sudden and fierce summer storm. Although Kade's work in the outdoors often brings with it an element of suspense and frequent danger, there are also treasured moments that come with being a Forest Ranger - and he loves it all.
