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.

As a tenacious and successful warden, he was always willing to spend the time needed to nab violators of the state's fish and game laws.
