Echoes of the Badge: Stories from a National Park Service Career

During his 27-year career with the National Park Service, park ranger John Goodwin was struck by lightning twice, faced off against bears and alligators, suffered numerous assaults in the line of duty, was hospitalized over twenty times, and fought a ten-year battle with PTSD. John reveals that park rangers are not larger than life heroes but instead are ordinary men and women forced to do extraordinary things to protect the National Parks and the people who visit them.
