Gr 7 Up—These books provide descriptions of various law enforcement careers, providing history and discussing tools of the trade. Some historical information on the various organizations is included as well—for instance, ATF includes a section on Eliot Ness, who during Prohibition was tasked with enforcing anti-liquor laws and who captured Al Capone. The titles also offer some direct, practical advice that goes beyond generic descriptions: how to get started, preparation and education, and benefits and salary.
