Burden of the Badge: A Year in the Life of a Street Cop - 5291

Burden of the Badge -A Year in the Life of a Street Cop cuts through all the fluff and make up of television police shows and fictional cop books. If you want to know what it's REALLY like wearing the badge day after day, week after week, this is the book for you. Documenting nearly 1,000 calls over a full year in the life of a patrol officer, everything comes out in this book. Set against the back drop of Saginaw, Michigan, a violent, decaying former automotive boom town, this book chronicles everything a street cop deals with every day. From the foul-mouthed tirades of drunken street bums and crack addicts, to the most senseless and brutal murders, the mental and physical stress faced daily by the men and women in uniform is detailed within these pages. Whether you are dying to know what the job is really like, or you are considering law enforcement as your own career, this book is truly an eye opener!
