As a retired police officer, and author, I found Life behind the badge to bring back vivid memories of my work as a peace officer. Doug has done a fine job of putting the reader "on scene." Richard Neal Huffman Author of Dreams In Blue: The Real Police - ISBN# 1-4137-9073-9
Outstanding

Life Behind The Badge is a great read. This book details every emotion that a Police Officer feels, but just cant interpret. Srgt. Driver is a veteran cop now, and has been through it all, yes even in "small town America." If you are looking for a book about real police work, and not some book that was not even written by a cop; that has no idea what's its really like, this is your book! Srgt. Driver great job, and be safe!
Every Police Officer Should Read This Book Every 5 Years

I read this book from cover to cover the day I received it. Sgt. Driver reminded me why I became a cop in the first place. Truly inspirational!
Life Behind the Badge
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
If I never read another book that's fine with me. I haven't cried since I was in Elementary School, until now. I way underestimated how heavy a badge is to wear. I will never again look at a cop, or a police car, and not think about what lies ahead for them. I started reading this book in the afternoon and finally went to sleep when I saw Sgt. Driver's face on the back cover. It was that enjoyable. Keep up the good work sir!Dave L.
The realistic truth about a Cop's life- No hollywood here
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Going against our current world of political correctness, this is one book that doesn't pull any punches and tells it like it is ... This is a true accounting of how a cop lives his life and tells of the personal sacrifices he makes to "serve and protect" those in his community... No Hollywood version here... Simply one highly-decorated officer's facts of what he and his brotherhood face everyday... From capturing drunk drivers, to helping the elderly, to nearly being beaten or shot to death - If you don't have respect for the police and the things they do now- You will after you read this book...
