Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Police Service of Hartford From 1636 to 1901: From Authoritative Sources; Illustrating and Describing the Economy, Equipment and Effectiveness of the Police Force of to-Day; With Reminiscences of the Past, Including Some Notes of Important Cases The pioneers of Hartford, under the lead of the Rev. Thomas Hooker, were on the ground and beginning preparations for the coming winter, November 9, i63s. The little group of settlers were God - fearing men and women. Brought into the wilderness of those days expressly to lead the sort of religious life they chose, and such a community did not feel the need of a police officer. So it happened that there was no officer of the law in Hartford until April 26, 1336, not quite six months after the settlement. Then it was that, in connection with other officers of the new settlement, Samuel \vakeman was chosen con stable, and he was the first man to do police duty in Hartford. His duties were not largely connected with caring for the crim inal class. For there was none, but in viewing fences, in carry ing out orders of the Selectmen, and in seeing that public wor ship was not disturbed either on Sundays or lecture days he was kept fairly busy. The office was by no means deemed to be of small importance, and the oath he took before entering upon his official duties was most solemn and impressive. It read.

The surprising final chapter of a great American life. When the first volume of Mark Twain’s uncensored Autobiography was published in 2010, it was hailed as an essential addition to the shelf of his works and a crucial document for our understanding of the great humorist’s life and times. This third and final volume crowns and completes his life’s work. Like its companion volumes, it chronicles Twain's inner and outer life through a series of daily dictations that go wherever his fancy leads. Created from March 1907 to December 1909, these dictations present Mark Twain at the end of his life: receiving an honorary degree from Oxford University; railing against Theodore Roosevelt; founding numerous clubs; incredulous at an exhibition of the Holy Grail; credulous about the authorship of Shakespeare’s plays; relaxing in Bermuda; observing (and investing in) new technologies. The Autobiography’s "Closing Words" movingly commemorate his daughter Jean, who died on Christmas Eve 1909. Also included in this volume is the previously unpublished "Ashcroft-Lyon Manuscript," Mark Twain’s caustic indictment of his "putrescent pair" of secretaries and the havoc that erupted in his house during their residency. Fitfully published in fragments at intervals throughout the twentieth century, Autobiography of Mark Twain has now been critically reconstructed and made available as it was intended to be read. Fully annotated by the editors of the Mark Twain Project, the complete Autobiography emerges as a landmark publication in American literature.

Grounded in evidence-based research, Police in America provides a comprehensive and realistic introduction to modern-day policing in the United States. This reader-friendly text helps students understand best practices in everyday policing and think critically about the many misconceptions of police work. Author Steven G. Brandl draws from his experience with law enforcement to emphasize the positive aspects of policing without ignoring its controversies. Brandl tackles important topics that center on one question: "What is good policing?" Included are discussions of discretion, police use of force, and tough ethical and moral dilemmas—giving students a deeper look into the complex issues of policing to help them think more broadly about its impact on society. This title is accompanied by a complete teaching and learning package.
