E-Man: Life in the NYPD Emergency Services by Det. Al Sheppard, Ret. with Jerry Schmetterer Format: 6 x 9 softcover ISBN: 978-1-60008-050-0 |
Book Description
E-Man is the breathtaking and sometimes heartbreaking memoir of one of
New York’s legendary emergency service cops. For 10 years Al Sheppard sped
through the crowded New York streets to come to the aid of civilians and other
police officers, always putting their needs ahead of his. E-Man is a story of
adventure, courage and love.
“A top-notch memoir of an exciting period in the career of a great cop. Al Sheppard tells it like it is!”
—Captain Tom Walker, NYPD, Ret., Author of Fort Apache
“Al Sheppard was on the front lines of the most difficult job in police work. EMen risk their lives every day in many different ways. They are great cops, and Al’s memoir is right on the mark.”
—Detective Sgt. Joseph Coffey, NYPD, Ret., Author of The Coffey Files
“Sheppard served in the NYPD during the ‘urban warfare’ years and received his ‘Baptism of Fire’ at the 'Williamsburg Siege.’ He was a decorated hero of the NYPD and member of the elite Emergency Services Unit (ESU). In his book E-Man, Al takes the reader on a non-stop roller coaster ride of emotions as he reveals life on the streets through the eyes of a combatant during the turbulent times and the work of the Emergency Services Unit—the same unit that the police call when they need help.”
—Detective Lt. Vern Gelbreth, NYPD, Homicide Commander
