In this highly entertaining book, author Bob Murphy relates his most memorable experiences with bears over 20 years as a ranger in Yellowstone and Glacier national parks.

Go behind the scenes as Murphy deals with grizzly and black bears in all kinds of situations -- good, bad, tragic, humorous, and odd -- on foot, horseback, and even on a boat -- in the deepest backcountry and in the lobby of a famous lodge -- alone and surrounded by park visitors.

Murphy takes you to the days when thousands of tourists watched hundreds of bears at official bear-feeding sites in Yellowstone National Park, and the times when troublesome "campground bears" had to be trapped by lone rangers in the nights.

You'll go along on the difficult rescue of a starving grizzly and her three cubs on a tiny island in Yellowstone Lake, and you'll experience a hair-raising face-off with a mad mother grizzly on a narrow trail in Glacier. There is a cabin-busting bruin that just wouldn't leave, a frightened teenager and black bear stuck up the same tree, a three-toed mystery bear, and dozens of honestly told stories of bears with rangers, tourists, hikers, and campers.

These first-hand stories, most never before told, are great entertainment, vivid bear tales, and an inside look at bear management in our national parks.
