Publisher: Little, Brown & Co; First Edition 1957 Subjects: Law, Police, Law Enforcement Approx. size: 8.25" by 6" -- 328 pages Below, online review -- "A fine contemporary and historical account of the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) - how it grew, its guiding ideals and its modern methods - restates the living legend of Canada's remarkable police force. The bulk of the narrative tells of actual cases, both famous and typical, through which Mountie techniques and psychology are forcefully depicted. Reading like detective thrillers, the episodes build a growing impression of the dignity and self-reliance which have always characterized the Mounties and given them a special appeal for an American audience who think they are tops too." Very good condition with like dust jacket. Jacket shows only minor signs of wear from handling, quite nice and book is red cloth covers and black lettering on spine. Spotless interior. Both fine! Please see and enlarge photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks |
