Hola Ranger, My Journey Through The National Parks - Hardcover

by Raymond David Vela (Author)

Hola Ranger chronicles the life story of a Latino growing up in the farmlands of Southeast Texas, his first visit to a national park, and the impact that it had on his life. In addition, the experiences and people that he met during his 38 years of public service. Packed with family images and entertaining anecdotes, the author also provides a fascinating insight into what it takes to work in and protect a national park while honoring all who have served their country in protecting our nation's most special places, and all of the stories that they contain. Hola Ranger reflects his profound belief in faith, family, and country as well as desire to inspire the next generation of diverse conservation stewards, advocates, and workforce.
