If [this] new book by John H. Tidyman doesn't make you want to run
right out and join the force, nothing will.--Erik Cassano "Medina

Some books are called great rides; Cleveland Cops is a ride-along,
as officers of all ranks and departments, from retired Cleveland

latest frequencies on the Radio Shack scanner.--Charles Cassady,
