Poacher's Creed

No Closed Season

The book is a follow up to his first release, Woods Cop: 34 Years a State Game Warden, as the author tells stories that could only be shared by someone who patrolled 500 square miles of remote mountainous terrain throughout north-central PA.

Some of the stories provide laugh-out-loud moments as Wasserman details crazy scenarios, such as people he investigated offering excuses that even Hollywood would admire, even when caught red-handed breaking state game laws.

Of course, peril is a constant. Wasserman’s career was pre-cell phones, pitting him alone with often angry hunters that were always armed. In fact, he admits in his newest offering that two of his nemeses in particular always forced him to use extreme caution. He felt, that if given the chance for a clean get away, he feared they would "shoot him in the back."

Poacher's Creed starts where his book Woods Cop stopped, and features many tales that listeners will find humorous.

Great book for young and old outdoor enthusiasts

Wasserman, a retired state game warden, writes about his 34-year career chasing poachers in the backwoods of Pennsylvania. He has a very interesting story about being the first game warden in the state to prosecute a DNA case back in the 1980s. Another great chapter was about patrolling the Yukon Territory of Canada with a Canadian game warden. And with characters like Coyotee Boy, Choo-Choo Twain, and Big Nasty, it was really fun to listen to. The narrator, John Schindele, was excellent! You can't go wrong with this one. Loved it!
