Resumen del Editor
John Ford, Sr., returns to the outdoors of Maine with This Cider Still Tastes Funny!: Further Adventures of a Game Warden in Maine, his follow-up to the highly popular and critically acclaimed Suddenly, the Cider Didn't Taste So Good.
Ford is a retired Maine game warden, sheriff, and gifted storyteller who carved out a reputation as a man of the law, but one who wasn't a by-the-book enforcer. He often came up with a good quip as he slipped the handcuffs on a violator, and he wasn't above accepting a lesson learned as sufficient penalty for breaking the law. He was also more than willing to laugh at himself.
As Kate Braestrup, author of the New York Times best seller Here if you Need Me, said, John Ford's stories from his long career as a Maine game warden are offered with humility and good humor, and demonstrate an abiding affection for the land, creatures, and quirky characters of Maine. Ford is an appealing character, a great storyteller, and he's funny.

Historia
Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

Historia
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

Historia
On June 6, 2015, inmates Richard Matt and David Sweat escaped from Clinton Correctional Facility, New York State's largest maximum security prison. The media was instantly obsessed with the story: aided by a prison seamstress who smuggled hacksaw blades, chisels, and drill bits inside the facility via a vat of raw hamburger meat, the two convicted murderers sliced their way through steel cell walls, meandered through a maze of tunnels, climbed out of a manhole, and walked off into the night.

Historia
Norco '80 tells the story of how five heavily armed young men - led by an apocalyptic born-again Christian - attempted a bank robbery that turned into one of the most violent criminal events in US history, forever changing the face of American law enforcement. Part action thriller and part courtroom drama, Norco '80 transports the listener back to the Southern California of the 1970s, an era of predatory evangelical gurus, doomsday predictions, megachurches, and soaring crime rates, with the threat of nuclear obliteration looming over it all.

Historia
Tim Cotton has been a police officer for more than 30 years. The writer in him has always been drawn to the stories of the people he has met along the way. Dealing with the standard issue ne’er-do-wells as a patrol officer, homicide detective, polygraph examiner, and later as the lieutenant in charge of the criminal investigation division certainly provides an interesting backdrop - but more often he writes about the regular folks he encounters, people who need his help, or those who just want to share a joke or even a sad story.

Amusing Tales from the North Woods
This book is a collection of essays recounting John Ford's days serving as a game warden in The Great State of Maine. As I'm sure you'll have guessed, it's full of tales of apprehending lawbreakers of all sorts. Most of these stories are humorous. Many of them made me chuckle out loud. There are a few that are poignant as well.
I enjoyed listening to these stories. I'm always interested in people's lives, told in their own words. That's the reason I requested a free review copy of this audiobook. I liked the simple, straight-forward writing. The narration by Michael A Smith enhanced these real life stories. I could easily imagine all the antics described by Mr Ford. Recommended.
This is my voluntary review.

Who Knew that Life in the Woods Could Be So Funny?
When I was in high school I found a lot of enjoyment in backpacking on the Appalachian Trail and crawling around in caves with my friends. Thirty years later—not so much—but I still enjoy reading clever accounts of backwoods happenings. The sort of stories told by Patrick McManus, Bill Heavey and now John Ford. Unlike McManus and Heavey, Ford wasn’t a professional writer—he was a game warden in Maine, but his stories are just as entertaining. If you think you’d enjoy a good humored look at life trying to enforce the hunting laws, you should give this book a try.
I received this book from Audiobook Boom in exchange for an honest review.

A hilarious look at the life of a game warden
We all do the jobs that we do. Some work in the same field for our whole lives some hop from job type to job type and never settle long in one career path. Regardless of which category we fall into, we all have a story (or many) to tell of the crazy and weird things that happen. If you don’t have any stories to tell you truly have a boring job. This author did not have an even remotely boring job. The stories contained within range from amusing to hilarious, basic to gross, normal to truly odd. Welcome to the life of a game warden in Maine. Learn about the trials and tribulations, the brotherhood of the badge, the loyalty of friends and the limits and lines that people will not tolerate being crossed. Every bit was enjoyable and educational.

Laugh yourself silly!
law-enforcement, animal-welfare, situational-humor, verbal-humor
What a hoot! We spent a number of years in northern Wisconsin and it was so easy to see that people who live out in the back of beyond in snow country have an awful lot in common. But this game warden has a real gift for remembering and sharing funny stories about working the woods and nabbing the lawbreakers. Loved it! Michael A Smith's narration really adds to the fun!
I won this audiobook in a giveaway!

Entertaining Real Life Stories
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This review is for the audio copy of This Cider Still Tastes Funny! Further Adventures of a Game Warden in Maine, by John Ford and narrated by Michael A. Smith. This was a very interesting story for me. It kept me engaged and entertained throughout the entire book. The narration was well paced and a fair job was done with all the different voices and accents. The book is a compilation of short stories about the real life adventures of a Maine Game Warden. I was well entertained.
