The bear trap

Short story about a ranger trying to solve a mystery. I found it to be entertaining.

Great Intro to Doiron’s Work

This works. It’s a good story, so I will now get a full-sized Doiron.

Depiction of the outdoors. Interaction of outlaws with the wardens

I like the various ages of the characters. Maine s out of doors has become more familiar.

Fair but not...

The hermit is a real man and since I know the real story I find this bogus one slightly offensive. Perhaps if it had been a story onto itself and not so closely mirroring a real person it would have been more believable.

Maine hermit

I liked that it was a twist on a real hermit that once lived in the woods in Maine.

The bear trap, "the lost of one credit trap"

Not worth a credit for 43 minutes. Looks like I got cheated out of a credit. It was a good short story.
