About this title

Synopsis

In his new book, Jim Geeting gives us a second helping of the most popular shorts from his very popular column of the same name. Read the thoughts and observations of a retired and decorated Wyoming state trooper, as he speaks not as a cop, but as a neighbor, husband, father, outdoorsman, reverent soul and friend.

About the Author

During his years as a trooper, Jim was a Field Training Officer, Range Officer, W.H.P. Academy Instructor for traffic stops and officer survival and, was a member of the W.H.P. Special Services Squad reactionary team.

He was involved in several hair-raising cases over that time, for which he received two Colonel's Commendations, the Distinguished Service Medal for Bravery and the Purple Heart for serious injuries in the line of duty. One incident, a tense, two-hour negotiation with a deranged and armed felon, resulted in the shotgun-brandishing suspect's peaceful surrender. The case was so astounding it was depicted in an episode of "Real Stories of the Highway Patrol" television series, where Jim portrayed himself!
