{"product_id":"oregon-search-and-rescue-glenn-voelz-9781467155250","title":"Oregon Search \u0026 Rescue: Answering the Call","description":"Oregon's long tradition of volunteer search and rescue dates back to the territorial days, when Good Samaritans and mountain men came to aid those in need. On the coast, surfmen of the U.S. Life-Saving Service protected mariners traversing the \"Graveyard of the Pacific.\" In the early twentieth century, outdoor clubs like the Mazamas, the Skyliners and the Obsidians served as informal search and rescue units, keeping Oregonians safe in the mountains, rivers and wilderness areas. After World War II, Oregon's volunteer teams began to professionalize and became some of the most effective units in the country. Join author Glenn Voelz as he recounts the history of Oregon search and rescue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Glenn Voelz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 146715525X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467155250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Glenn Voelz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44213418721535,"sku":"9781467155250","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_913aad5a-3983-4c01-9c11-b5bbc064b5fd.jpg?v=1692113776","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/oregon-search-and-rescue-glenn-voelz-9781467155250","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
