Item description from seller

NOT price clipped ($23.95). NO chips. NO tears. Sharp corners. There is also a non-authorial gift note on front free endpaper. All other pages are clean and unmarked. First printing with "First Edition: February 2004" so stated, and complete number row (10 987654321) on the copyright page. Bound in the original blue boards, stamped in bright silver on the spine. From the dust jacket: "After September 11, 2001 Las Vegas Police Sergeant Randy Sutton began soliciting writing from law enforcement officers - his goal being to bridge the gap between the police and those they serve, with a book that offers a broad and thoughtful look at the many facets of police life. Hundreds of active and former officers responded from all over the United States: men and women from big cities and small towns, some who had written professionally, but most of whom were doing so for the first time. Sutton culled the selections into five categories: The Beat, Line of Duty, War Stories, Officer Down, and Ground Zero. The result is TRUE BLUE, a collection of funny, charming, exciting, haunting stories about murder investigations, missing children, bungling burglars, car chases, lonely and desperate shut-ins, routine traffic stops, officers killed in the line of duty, and the life-changing events of September 11. Here, officers reveal their emotions - fear and pride, joy and disgust, shame and love - as they recount the defining moments of their careers. In these stories, the heart and soul behind the badge shines through in unexpected ways. TRUE BLUE will change the way we think about the deeply human realm of police service." . INSCRIBED/SIGNED by the AUTHOR. First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. xxii, 263pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
