Book description
“Writing at the intersection of medicine and adventure, Grange gives us a fascinating glimpse into rescues that would scare the pants off most of us. He writes with empathy, intelligence, humor and humanity. A captivating memoir. I couldn’t put it down.” —Kate Siber, correspondent for Outside magazine and author of National Parks of the USA “National parks bring together visitors accustomed to more controlled circumstances with heat, cold, cliffs, whitewater, wild animals, and thin air that challenges aging hearts. Anyone who suffers misfortune under these conditions can only hope that Kevin Grange is on duty. This man loves his job.” —Jordan Fisher Smith, author of Engineering Eden and Nature Noir “This is one helluva book. Grange somehow manages to combine the madness of life on an ambulance with the serenity and awe of America’s most beautiful places. Rangers, medics, tourists, adventurers (Alex Honnold makes a brief appearance), the fauna of Yellowstone—it’s all here. And you should be too. Wild Rescues is unlike anything you’ve read.” —Kevin Hazzard, author of A Thousand Naked Strangers “This book shares experiences, insights, learning from an experienced paramedic and wilderness rescue provider who tells it like it is about the challenges of patient care in remote environments, and the sometimes complex decisions that need to be made when 911 is not at your beck and call. There is honesty in the descriptions of team dynamics and the lives of those dedicated to serving others. And those who appreciate our national parks will take renewed pride at the dedication of those who care for those lands and those who visit them, the NPS rangers, who wear many hats—rescuer, resource caretaker, firefighter, visitor welcome, law enforcer—all to preserve this great American idea, our national parks.” —Tod Schimelpfenig, author of NOLS Wilderness First Aid jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
