This collection of essays doesn't hang together as well as Uncommon Carriers. Nelson Runger's narration is too perky.

However, three of the seven essays are really interesting: "The Gravel Page," about geological forensics; "Burden of Care," about the disposal and recycling of used tires; and "Irons in the Fire," about brand inspectors and cattle rustling.
