Shingletown, California, Author Publishes New Book

"Ramblings of a Ranger," a new book by Dave C. Frederick, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Recounting unforgettable life experiences in service, Dave C. Frederick educates the readers about the importance of nature and the fulfillment one can acquire in environment and public welfare diligence.

Frederick was employed as a National Park ranger, law enforcement officer, firefighter, and an educator, and he also participated in backcountry patrols and rescue and recovery teams. His more than forty years of experience in environment and public service became the foundation of his dedicated connection with nature. Aside from the accomplishments he possessed as a park ranger and disaster rescuer, he was able to introduce "the wild" to his students every time he would encourage them to camp up with him in the forests. The close encounter of students with nature more often than not made an impact on their lives-a goal Frederick aimed to attain.

Through Dave Frederick's written journal logs, he obtains a compilation of memorabilia, which now enables the telling, through his "Ramblings of a Ranger," of his thought-provoking endeavor.
