A Memoir Of Unbreakable Resilience & Tenacity

Memoirs of a Treasury Agent

Tradd Street Press

"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 This memoir serves as both a personal reflection on a lifetime of service and a vital historical document for those interested in the development of the modern police system. "Fifty-Two Years a Policeman" remains an essential read for students of criminology, social history, and the intricacies of 19th and 20th-century British law and order.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Fifty-Two Years a Policeman

'Extraordinary' ANNE APPLEBAUM 'Thrilling . . . a record of an infatuation' TELEGRAPH 'The book of a lifetime' ELIF SHAFAK 'The North Pole proves to be the perfect subject for him' MICHAEL PALIN 'Heart-catching . . . fabulous' OBSERVER 'A beautiful book' ALAIN DE BOTTON The epic adventure story of the North Pole - its transcendent beauty and dangerous appeal - from Norwegian explorer Erling Kagge who travelled there in 1990 Throughout recorded human time, few places on Earth have inspired as much fascination as the North Pole. This is an otherworldly place where the sun rises and stays aloft for six whole months before setting, plunging the expanse of ice and water into darkness for half a year. Foot-stepping alongside Erling Kagge, who ventured to the North Pole in the spring of 1990, we hear the story of the North Pole as never told before. From Herodotus who first wondered what the northernmost point of our planet might be like, to the intrepid early cartographers who mapped the world, and the legendary expeditions led by Fridtjof Nansen and Robert Peary - the first polar explorer global celebrities - who were in the grip of a dangerous obsession to get to the North Pole first. What emerges is a new history of the world, spanning thousands of years, as seen from the 'silver-shining vacantness' of the North Pole. Blending memories from Kagge's own 1990 trip with this epic history, The North Pole is an adventure story, a book about enacting hidden human dreams, about difficult fathers and their difficult sons, and a psychological record of what it means to keep putting one foot in front of the other in the face of adversity. It is for anyone who's gazed out at the horizon - and wondered what happens if you just keep walking. 'As an explorer Erling Kagge is world class; as a writer he is equally gifted' RANULPH FIENNES

COPE OR DIE

This is a true story about a street cop and the challenges he faced while trying to deal with the pitfalls and tragedies of life. The author of this "tell all" book writes of his experiences on the streets during years within the Law Enforcement community. Sometimes embarrassing, sometimes hilarious, and often raw. It's about the lifestyle, the addictive lure of the chase, and the emotional and physical costs endured along the way. The author uses some of the actual cases and real-world situations he encountered while pursuing his dreams and that elusive peace we all need so desperately. In all walks of life, we must learn to either cope or die. Follow Louis Schwiebert down the path to discover "the missing link." My name is Louis J. Schwiebert. I was born in California and went to Cuesta College and Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. My careers were in Law Enforcement and consulting. My hobbies are working-out at the gym and firearms training. Finding Jesus brought me to Christian ministry work 28 years ago and was the inspiration for my book.

The Missing Link

My Experience at Scotland Yard

For more than two decades, Jimmy Dennedy, a cop's cop, served the people of New York City as a member of the NYPD. First as a uniformed officer working the streets in some of the toughest crime ridden neighborhoods in his home borough of Brooklyn. Then in the NYPD narcotics division, dealing with the worst of the worst who were infesting the streets of the city with the poison that destroyed lives. And finally as a detective in the NYPD-FBI Joint Terrorist Task Force, doing just what the name says, chasing down those whose mission was to destroy the way of life of New Yorkers.When he retired from law enforcement, Dennedy found a different calling. He established a prison ministry. For 25 years, in both Otisville Federal Penitentiary, and Shawangunk State Prison he practiced his ministry touching the soul and conscience of men like those he locked up during his days in the NYPD. For those he counseled with prison time still to be served, he turned their lives around so they could do their time in peace. And for those who had the good fortune of being released, his guidance provided the foundation upon which they built productive, crime free lives.The story of Jimmy's journey from Brooklyn's toughest cop to his prison ministry needed to be shared with the world. Hard Guys Cry tells that story!

From Love to LinkedIn

A quiet village. A shared garden. A threat that arrives politely and grows impossible to ignore.When new neighbours move into the building next door, life in Marrowick begins to change in ways that are easy to dismiss and difficult to escape. Arguments bleed through walls. Police visits become routine. Fear settles slowly into a home already shaped by care, disability, and responsibility.As the situation escalates, a man who has always believed in calm, honesty, and proportion finds himself living on constant alert. Not violent, but vigilant. Not reckless, but permanently on guard. When a line is finally crossed, restraint itself becomes a risk.Next Door is a restrained, first-person account of prolonged neighbour conflict and the quiet erosion of safety. It explores how ordinary people are changed by sustained threat, how systems fail slowly, and what it costs to protect a family when walking away is not an option.Based on a true story. Readers interested in Adam's other work can explore his adult nonfiction and children's titles through his Author Page.
