"Really enjoyable and interesting read." according to Keith McCART. Enjoyed this book very much, its written in a very easy to read way and is a real insight into Policing in the 60s to year 2000. Didn't put it down once I started it and was disappointed when it came to the end because I had enjoyed reading it so much. One of those books I will read again !
