Descriere magazin:
Told with great humor and compassion, Raabe\'s tales show us the heart behind the badge. --Michael Gurian, NY Times bestselling author of The Wonder of Boys Raabe\'s stories reflect the good, the bad and the ugly aspects of patrolling our highways. Patrolling the Heart of the West will bring a new appreciation for the unique role and responsibilities of state troopers, especially those who work in rural or remote areas. --G Paul Corbin, criminal justice professor and former chief of the Nevada Highway Patrol From the back cover: For decades, Trooper Steve Raabe patrolled some of the most desolate and dangerous highways in America.

Highly recommended. --Excerpt from Readers\' Favorite, review by Kimberlee J Benart Patrolling the Heart of the West is a quick, entertaining and informative glimpse into an important, sometimes dangerous career spent in a little understood corner of the country. --Ed Pearce, Senior Reporter, KOLO-TV Reno Perhaps the most endearing police memoir yet written. As a son and brother of cops, I admire the humanity Raabe brings to each of these stories. --Jon Gosch, author of Deep Fire Rise Patrolling the Heart of the West is a thoroughly entertaining and enlightening read. With a style reminiscent of the war stories exchanged during a law-enforcement family barbecue, Raabe\'s skill as a storyteller is evident as he
