MY LIFE AS A LAWMAN: Memories From a Historic Era
Santa Ana, CA: Graphic Publishers, 2013. Octavo, 248 pages, illustrated, color pictorial softcovers. An exciting, fascinating and human look into the life of a lawman during this most historic era in Los Angeles, California, MY LIFE AS A LAWMAN chronicles the 32-year career of a veteran member of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, beginning in 1965. Retired Sergeant John Kocis relies on his vast experience and seemingly endless recollections of times past-good, bad, happy and sad. Just a few of the high-profile incidents in which he participated are the Watts Riots in 1965, security for the Manson Family trials, the East L.A. Riots of 1970-71, the UC Santa Barbara Riots in Isla Vista in 1970, and the aftermath of the brutal murders of four young CHP officers that same year. Fascinating reading, and an insider's look into the world of law enforcement. You'll LOVE this book-Order it today!
