Title: Not worth the effort or the money
Product review: From the title. one would expect an in-depth review of the New York City PD, its officers and its problems. What one gets is a ranting history of the NYC police from day one. Most of the book zeros in on a few unknown police officers who the authors tell us were the heros of their day.(Their day being 1850-1940) The last few chapters bring us to "modern day NYC" and again-with the exceptional addressing of modern police problems (during the mid to late 1960's the NYPD experienced over 100 police officers killed in the line of duty-this book makes quick light of that)we are again rewarded with the tales of 2 more "unknown NYPD heros" that the authors force feed us. In essence, this is a poorly written, totally uninteresting book devoid of any clinical insight into the modern day NYPD
