A True Grit Look At How Policework Was Done

This is a definite recommend to those interested in reading stories about how policework used to be. The book reads as if the author is sitting back in an easy chair with a glass of scotch telling you about the good old days. Definitely enjoyable and a good read that transcends generations.

Powerful Collection

The stories I have read about the people working the streets of Oakland in the 1960's and 70's, as well as the Oakland Police Department itself seem to jump off the pages and become very real. Old School is a powerful book that will touch your heart and make you laugh. It made me understand how really special these people are.
