NEW REFORMAT FOR KINDLE I have had the opportunity to review and read THE THIN BLUE LIFELINE and I cannot recommend this book highly enough. This moves policing communication so far beyond "Verbal Judo" and "Tac Com" that those systems cannot even compare (though, to be sure, there are some similar techniques that they utilise in those systems). It is relevant, well-written, operationally-based, and goes to the heart of the matter in dealing with people who are in crisis - not just for dealing with "mentally ill" folks - but virtually everyone with whom police officers come into contact....

I've been repeatedly asked how it came about. High Country Terror- Chicago Fury had a startten years back, a start that made Marcy Frame famous enough, but drove her toDenver. The vignettes are a little too true, for I, or my friends and partners, lived these stories. This book is dedicated to those who made it, those who did not, and thosethat have moved on. Not all of us are still here. I hope that those who are canremember the events in a cop's life... Others can learn from them... From #TheStoryteller, G. Weldon Tucker

Burnham contends that the writings of these men hold the key both to the truth about politics and to the preservation of political liberty.

Being a supervisor in any occupation is seldom easy and quite often frustrating. Being a supervisor in a first responder agency is hardly ever easy and too often it is downright frustrating.
