James S. Prine, a veteran of the New Orleans Police Department has written “Real Police: Stories from the Crescent
City” a compilation of stories about police work from a police officer’s point of view. The term “Crescent City” is one of the nicknames given to New Orleans and refers to the course
of the Mississippi River around the city. According to a review from the New
Orleans Gambit, “I wouldn't suggest it to the squeamish, the politically correct or anyone who prefers not to know too
much about their neighbors or our protectors. It is suggested reading, however,
for those with morbid curiosities, those who empathize with our police force and anyone planning a career in law enforcement.”
James’ second work is a collection of short stories brought together under the title “Tales from the Id.”
