The Unseen Hand Behind America's Transformation: Unveiling the Untold Story of a Supreme Court Justice Who Redefined American Governance, U.S. Politics, Law, and Diplomacy

Writers of the West

Thirty years. Thousands of calls. Fires, fugitives, crime scenes, high-speed pursuits, and memories that don't disappear when the shift ends.

In LAWDOG, Jason Slabbaert takes readers behind the badge and into the raw, unpredictable world of a career first responder.

His journey begins as a young volunteer firefighter, running toward burning buildings, devastating accidents, and emergency calls that would stay with him for decades. From there, he enters the dangerous world of bounty hunting and fugitive recovery, tracking wanted men and women across Texas before ultimately finding his calling in law enforcement.

What follows is an unfiltered police memoir built from three decades on the front lines.

Slabbaert recounts the calls officers and first responders never truly forget: violent confrontations, tragic deaths, bizarre arrests, dangerous pursuits, heartbreaking scenes involving children, unexpected moments of humor, and the split-second decisions that separate an ordinary shift from a life-changing one.

But LAWDOG is about more than police stories.

Behind the adrenaline is another reality; the cumulative weight of first responder trauma and PTSD. Slabbaert spent years doing what many firefighters, police officers, EMTs, and other first responders learn to do: compartmentalize the horror, finish the shift, and show up again tomorrow.

Eventually, those experiences follow you home.

With dark humor, vulnerability, and firsthand insight, Slabbaert explores brotherhood, family, sacrifice, resilience, mental health, and what it means to remain human after spending a career meeting strangers on some of the worst days of their lives.

LAWDOG is a true first responder memoir for readers fascinated by real police stories, law enforcement, firefighting, bounty hunting, PTSD, survival, and life behind the badge.
The uniform may come off at the end of a shift.

What you witnessed doesn't.

"Fifty-Two Years a Policeman" offers a comprehensive and firsthand account of the evolution of law enforcement in Great Britain through the eyes of one of its most distinguished officers, Sir William Nott-Bower. Spanning over half a century, Nott-Bower's narrative provides an unparalleled look into the inner workings of the police force from the late Victorian era through the early 20th century. Having served in significant leadership roles, including the Commissioner of the City of London Police, the author recounts his experiences with clarity, detailing the shift from traditional methods to more modernized investigative techniques.The work explores a wide range of topics, including high-profile criminal cases, the management of public order during times of social unrest, and the administrative challenges of overseeing a major urban police force. Nott-Bower shares insights into the personalities of notable figures and the complexities of urban crime during a transformative period in British history. This memoir serves as both a personal reflection on a lifetime of service and a vital historical document for those interested in the development of the modern police system.

Zwischen Ehre und Verrat

Blutsbrüder

Both an epic history and an intimate family story, a startling account of the lives of Black cops in one Midwestern city. Amid the fervent protests over police killings in 2020, the reporter Wilbert L. Cooper returned to his hometown of Cleveland to profile the president of a Black police organization called the Black Shield. The group had aligned itself with activists calling for reform, but its president was notorious for having shot a young unarmed Black man years earlier. As Cooper explored the question of whether Black cops can create the kind of radical changes in policing that Black people are calling for, he was also welcomed by the members of the group in a different, more complicated capacity: as Sergeant Will Cooper's son. For Cooper, this assignment was personal. His parents are retired Black Cleveland cops; his sister was a Cleveland cop; on his mother's side, there has been a Cleveland cop in the family since 1950. In unearthing the dramatic histories of the Black Shield and his own family, Cooper tells the intertwined stories of the two: his relatives, whose lineage traces back to the Great Migration and who chose policing because it was one of the few stepping stones to economic security and status in a segregated city; and an organization that, over decades of cultural and political upheaval, has cycled endlessly between rebellion and acquiescence. An intimate, bold work of literary nonfiction, The Black Shield is an urgent exploration of the complex duality of the Black cop. Cooper grapples with a knot of contradictions: Is the Black officer a sign of progressive change, or of a system that shifts its appearance without changing its outcomes? How to reconcile the fact that policing helped lift his family out of poverty while it has kept its knee on the necks of his people? Fearless and singularly powerful, The Black Shield gives us an American story about race and power that has never been told before.
