Rating:  Summary: A very exciting read! Review: I worked with Ms. Muleady-Mecham in Sequoia NP, many years ago. I was a brand new, seasonal ranger, and had the opportunity to see her in action as a paramedic. I was very impressed with her knowledge, and her calm demeanor under pressure.My dad picked up this book for me, because I had worked as a ranger before, and thought I'd enjoy it. He had no idea that I actually (sort of) knew the author. I really enjoyed reading this book. I felt like I was there on the scene as everything happened. The author definitely gives the reader a feel for the behind-the-scenes action that is going on in the national parks, stuff the average visitor to the park will never be aware of.

Rating:  Summary: Wonderful read! Review: Not only is Ranger Nancy a paramedic, an RN, a teacher, a firefighter, a cop, a swiftwater rescuer, a marksman, an artist, a friend and a wife, she's quite a storyteller, as well.
Oh, the images she paints for her readers! I could feel the heat of the flames, the chill of the October night on the desert, and I swear I gasped as I looked over the rim to see the body on the ledge, 400 feet below.
Ranger Nancy makes me wish I'd been a park ranger, too!
One more thing, Please, Nancy, tell 'your Kent' that now I have a good picture of the fire engineer at work. Thank you, Kent.
Thanks Ranger Nancy Eileen; when is your next book due out?
Kathleen, RN
