In this fine compilation of stories, Dick Clason has managed to preserve some of BHPD's history as recalled by many of our finest alumni. Each story is reminiscent of a bunch of us (cops) sitting around a table with friends and sharing stories from our past. Police officers, both current and retired, will enjoy this book very much. I am sure it will encourage many more stories and perhaps even another book. The Beverly Hills Police Department has a long and proud history. Some of it can be relived through these stories. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. David Snowden, Chief of Police Beverly Hills, California
