About This Item

New York: Warner Books, 1987. Uncorrected Proofs . Large Softcover. Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. This is an "Uncorrected Proof" copy - often referred to, but not quite the same as, an "Advance Reading Copy" [or ARC] - fast becoming an attractive collectible, as it precedes the First Edition. This journalist-written book insightfully examines police culture, focusing particularly on how women officers fare with the public and their male colleagues in the NYPD. Set in New York and told from the perspectives of four policewomen, Lady Cop is based on interviews and observations of women for the most part working on patrol. The majority of the situations described are common to police of both sexes. Incorporated into the narrative of their daily lives and routines is a sense of why these women chose this challenging career and the difficulties that they encounter because of their sex. 271 pages. CONDITION: a bright, tight, square, unmarked, uncreased copy with light shelf-wear and a touch of spine sunning. This handsome, collectible copy is now in a clear, protective polypropylene bag.
