The Fugitive Forester

About the Book

Mistakenly accused as a murder, the Fugitive Forester hides out in the woods and lives off the land as he strives to bring the real murderer to justice. The methods he uses to survive and avoid detection gives real meaning to the term “survivor”. To those who have wondered how a person can remain hidden in the woods this book is an eye opener.
