When Bob Becker came home from his tour of military duty during the Vietnam era he was looking for something a bit more restful. However, the first real job offer he received in his home state of New Mexico, The Land of Enchantment, turned out to be working with ex-convicts as a parole officer. With a young wife and a baby on the way, Bob made the decision to take on the challenge. He learned quickly that, although a sardonic sense of humor wasn't listed as a job requirement, it probably should have been. He writes of personal experiences during his lengthy career in field corrections with sensitivity, compassion and that requisite humor, plus he recounts a number of engaging and, at times, wrenching stories told to him by his colleagues.
