About This Item
NY: Simon and Schuster, 1985. BCE/BOMC. Hardcover_buckram spine. Fine/Fine. 5.75"x 8.5" 306 indexed pgs. Dk blue buckram spine w/gold foil letters over midnight blue boards. DJ #04636 designed by George Corsillo. Jacket photo by David Plakky. Author photo by Richard Shoberg. Spine straight, binding tight, pages clean w/soft tone. Not x-library, unclipped (no price), unmarked. Secure ship w/track #. Based on interviews with more than one hundred police officers, a cross-section representing male and female officers, small town and big city cops, Blacks and whites, patrolmen and anti-terrorist specialists, the author reveals the worlds of the police. What they can't say on television, what they won't write in novels, cops have now told Mark Baker. From the idealistic rookie to the burnt-out veteran, here are the unforgettable voices of over 100 police men and women across the country... cops who shoot and are shot at, who pick up the pieces of shattered bodies and shattered lives, who face the danger, the fear, and the depravity... who live every day in the frightening, hard world of COPS.
