Title: Wow - this book took guts
Review: After reading this book I can really appreciate the "blue wall of silence" and what it must have taken Gallo to break it with this writing. With an Aunt and a Brother in law who are both big city cops, I now have a renewed appreciation for what they go through. Heartbreaking stories which bring the job to life made me appreciate all the more the cops that go out there and do the job every day. More than anything though, I think this memoir does a great job of touching on cop life from many different angles -- the dogs, the harrassment, the gangs, the drugs -- extremely effective. This one will ring in my mind for a long time, but very worth it.
