Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the elements against them, the state troopers of Alaska face every day with a fight for their lives. In the state of Alaska, anything goes. For the state troopers, an average day can include blizzard conditions, midnight sunsets, and subzero temperatures. Tales of the Alaska State Troopers gives insight to just how the brave men and women of the law combat these conditions while still upholding their duties to the fine people of Alaska. Follow trooper Dan Valentine as he finds himself in the midst of a crisis when an abandoned truck holds more than just an old blanket on the passenger seat. Dan’s responsibility for the town of Trapper Creek becomes a fight for survival when he realizes the truck has enough explosives in it to make a small dent in the Alaska Range. With his fellow lawmen, Valentine not only must handle the situation, but he must also make sure that the citizens of Trapper Creek are evacuated from harm’s way. Tales of the Alaska State Troopers is rich in content and action. Anyone familiar with the life of a lawman or the state of Alaska will be fascinated with the way Mathiesen delivers his narrative. It’s all in a day’s work for troopers like Dan Valentine, who never know what a new day can bring.

Download or read book Trooper Down written by Marie Bartlett and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2012-04-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s a trooper’s worst nightmare. What begins as a routine patrol suddenly turns violent when someone pulls a weapon. Moments later, the trooper is down—wounded or dead. Then, like a swarm of angry bees, every other trooper on the force mobilizes to catch the suspect. Whether they’re issuing a ticket for speeding “just a little” over the limit or conducting an all-out manhunt, the people who have chosen this perilous and demanding profession are rarely revealed as vividly or candidly as they are here. In Trooper Down! Marie Bartlett uses her gripping hell-for-leather style to paint a fascinating portrait of one of the nation’s most elite law-enforcement agencies. In interviews and anecdotes, troopers relate stories of narrow misses, breathtaking confrontations, strange and hilarious encounters with various “crazies,” and, most heartbreakingly, working the wrecks—aiding the injured and dying in highway accidents—while troopers’ wives and widows tell of the heart-wrenching realities trooper families face. Through this remarkable book, we not only comprehend the life of a trooper, we are unforgettably there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of a Trooper: With Much of Interest Concerning the Campaign on the Peninsula, Not Before Written An eccentric gentleman, who had sold jewelry in Maiden Lane, thinking the Government might need an extra regiment or so of cavalry before the war was ended, had inserted in the Herald an advertisement, proposing a meeting at a hall on Broadway, for the purpose of considering measures to raise a regiment of volunteer cavalry. A Colonel was wanted, to whom would be presented a remarkable horse, of great value, and a near relation to Patchen. There was something attractive about the advertisement, as there also was about the wild, dashing life of a trooper. None but skillful horsemen were to apply, horsemanship being considered necessary to a useful trooper. It must be remembered that I am writing of what occurred before the Government made that greatest Of military dis coveries, that it is not necessary a man first learn to ride before you entrust him with a horse and equip ments, and send him, disabled with carbine, sabre and pistols, into the field to fight the enemy. There were those inclined to set this ambitious dealer in jewelry down as a very Indiscreet gentleman, to hazard his for tune on so dangerous an enterprise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grey Riders: The Story of the New York State Troopers About three years ago the New York Tribune wrote, asking if it would be possible to get a story of the State Police. As a result of the correspondence which followed Mr. F. F. Van de Water called upon me in Albany, and after talk ing with him it occurred to me that if he would don the uniform of a trooper, live at one of our barracks, and ride about on patrol he could get the spirit of the organization, study its personnel, and be able to write understandingly of it. Since then he has spent his vacations with us, for he was so popular with the men that I made him an Honorary Trooper, he being the only man holding such a warrant. He has passed a good deal of time with the members of this com mand and probably knows more about this department than anyone who is not a salaried member.
