Preface
When I began to write this book, I decided that I
didn't want to write a "how-to" book. I wanted a book to be a mix of
stories about tracking and practical instruction. When I sit down with people
and talk about some of the more interesting tracking tales I've been involved in
over the years, I notice something interesting. Even people who couldn't care
less about tracks on the ground listen intently. They lean in, their body language telling me that they want
to hear more. They're sorry when the story ends. I wanted people who have not
had the advantage of being in one of our tracking courses (or sitting around
my dinner table) during the past thirty years to be able to "sit in"
on some of those stories. The prospective tracking student will also begin to
understand how each of these stories involves tracking and how people can
learn to do the things that might well seem improbable, if not impossible.
Joel Hardin.
After I read Joel's Book, I must disagree with
him. He mentioned that he didn't want to create a "how-To" book,
but the book is a wealth of tracking information for anyone at any level of
tracking. Advanced students will learn from Joel's numerous stories with
out of the box thinking to the successful missions. Joel also has
dedicated chapters on "Tracking Basics" "Advanced Training"
and "Aging Sign", as well as chapters on "Search & Rescue
Tracking", " Law Enforcement Tracking" and "Military
Tracking". A great tracking book with 432 pages, to add to your collection.
