DAREN WORCESTER
12 Wardens, 20 Stories,
300 Years of North Woods Law Enforcement
Being a game warden in Maine (which has the oldest game warden service in the United States) is not a job, it's a way of life. Before reality TV, GPS devices, and dashboard computers, Open Season recreates a coming of age period for the Maine Warden Service. It was a time when a compass, map, and one's wits were what mattered most in the field. Every day offered the potential for an exciting new adventure, many of which endangered the wardens' lives.
Through the eyes of 12 wardens, who altogether represent 300 years of fish and game law enforcement experience in the north woods, you'll feel the excitement of a twig snapped in the dark...the frustration of second guessing yourself when lives are at stake...and the duty to do what's right, even if it means breaking the law.
Open Season: True Stories of the Maine Warden Service is a publication of Down East Books.
