Cop Talk

This book was written primarily for the non-police reader. However, it was subjected to "peer review" for accuracy and content. Read what experienced law enforcement professionals say about "Cop Talk." None have received any compensation for their opinions.




"Most people's opinion of police work is derived from the embellished concept delivered daily by Hollywood to our theaters and television. Sergeant Bob Sherman's reflective writing style places the reader next to him as he patrols the streets. He delivers the unpredictable events that interject themselves into the daily life of a police officer. From the need to be able to make "split second" decisions under pressure to being able to laugh at the follies of mankind, his concise writing of each chapter allows the reader to set the book down and pick it up later without missing a "beat" and begin a new adventure." James M. Paoletti, Chicago Police Department, Captain (retired) / Chief of Police, Crete Illinois (retired)




"Sergeant Bob Sherman writes with meticulous attention to detail, a realistic approach, and sound police tactics. His straightforward style provides a safe haven for readers to experience the life of a career police officer." Undersheriff Bob Peterson, Orange County, California, Sheriff 's Office




"Sergeant Bob's book draws you right in! Finishing one chapter, you are keen to see what the next one is all about. A lot of policing between the USA and the United Kingdom is so similar, but for the carrying of firearms and the onerous responsibilities when they are used and discharged." Constable Roger Parker, Retired Patrol Officer, Police Vehicle Technology Specialist, Central Motorway Police Group, England
