“I've been using The Law Officer’s Pocket Manual since the beginning of my career in 1979. The breadth of information in this handy little manual is astounding … like having an expert tutor in contemporary criminal justice and Jurisprudence. No police officer should be without this guide.”
—Chief Vincent T. Carlone
New Shoreham Police Department, Block Island Rhode Island
