Rookie Log: The Personal Thoughts and Experiences of Three Rookie Fremont, California, Police Officers During Field Training
When he began this series of interviews for Tri-City Voice newspaper, William Marshak had very little knowledge of the training necessary to become a police officer in his community. He asked local police department officials if it would be possible to interview an officer in training. The result is Rookie Log: The Personal Thoughts and Experiences of Three Rookie Fremont, California, Police Officers During Field Training. Fascinating in-depth conversations with these novice police officers record their thoughts as they progress from simulation and theory of academy training to the reality of assisting and protecting their community as professional peace officers.
Perfect for those interested in entering law enforcement or just learning more about these guardians of the community, Marshak's book is an exciting account, in the officers' own words, of the legal, moral, and emotional struggles on the path to becoming confident and valued members of the law enforcement team.
