"103 Texas peace officers recount their proudest moments, the most unusual calls they've handled, their worst days on duty, and what gets them through it all." --Introduction.

Life Behind the Badge is the real story behind law enforcement, written by a veteran police officer. Although similar to the life of a cop, this story has all the excitement of the chases and takedowns that Tinseltown emphasizes. Sergeant Doug Driver also shows you the struggle to be a cop in today's world of lawsuits, political correctness, and public scrutiny. The private life of a public servant can be hard. It's easier to take a criminal off the streets than it is to keep a marriage together. Harsh hours, low pay, stress, and the trauma of seeing the cold hard truths of life take their toll. But every day, in every town in America, men and women put on the badge and sacrifice a part of themselves in order to serve Justice. This is the story of one man's Life Behind the Badge.

There's so much more to a police officer's badge that all first responders wear. But that's what the world sees. What's behind and beyond that badge is what people need to know-the person. Those behind the badge may wear a different uniform, but they too have families and love their communities. Each one faces all that life has to offer.

A killer is threatening the life of rookie cop Sydney Tucker's sister–unless Sydney turns over evidence from a drug bust. But she doesn't have the evidence. Not that the thug believes her. Now she and the sibling in her care are under the watchful eye of Logan Lake police chief Russ Morgan...

Drawn from twenty-four years of experience working for a Southern California police department, Behind the Badge: A Policemans Legacy is a window into the true-life drama of life in the ranks of one of the countrys most dangerous jobs. No longer the realm of Mayberry R.F.D., but not yet the world of Blade Runner, this is the story of real men and women doing real jobs at the start of the twenty-¬first century.

Provides a glimpse into the world of the individuals behind the badge and the tangled world they inhabit on the behalf of the public they serve

In Who I Am: The Man Behind the Badge, I'm going to describe all the gore, all the horrors and all the emotions I felt, not to gross you out but to let you know what I experienced.

What do you do when one of your friends is murdered? Not only murdered, but she was murdered by your other friend, (her ex husband) who also happened to be your childhood hero. This isn't just another book about OJ Simpson, it is the full story of a man who found himself in the middle of a dark tunnel that seemed to have no end. After years of guilt, lies, and betrayal, Ron battled back and forth whether or not to tell his story, in fear of losing his credibility. Twenty-two years later, he felt it was time for his story to be told. The Heart Behind the Badge is a memoir that outlines the life and events that led up to him testifying against one of his friends in what would be known as The Trial of the Century. Not one of his 15 years on the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) could have prepared him for what he was about to face.

Behind My Badge is a spellbinding story of courage, commitment, and unwavering faith. Captain Mike Rossman takes us behind the scenes of the City of Miami Fire Department over a period of 30 years of service. As his hard-won promotions take him from rookie to Battalion Captain, he tells us what it's really like to be a firefighter or paramedic on a Rescue crew - from learning how to lay a hose or hook a ladder to departmental policies like "skipping." Whether he and his men are responding to a multi-alarm fire, rushing to a riot scene, saving the life of a cardiac arrest patient, delivering a child, or treating a horse, they have to count first on each other. Captain Rossman's stories are honest compassionate, often inspirational, and interlaved with the wry humor born of facing danger on a daily basis.
