According to the book description of Beyond the Blue Line: Volume 2: Sixty-Four New Stories from the Other Side of Law Enforcement, “A State Trooper fights a belligerent clown….A former sheriff is assassinated in a small Tennessee town….Officers respond to a case of a biting duck….A naked man, a shotgun, and a camera…And that old lady the deputy just ticketed, isn’t she…the sheriff’s grandma? In Beyond the Blue Line: Volume 2, former police officer Joe D. Guy once again outdoes himself with a collection of humorous, heartwarming, and sometimes adventurous true stories from the other side of law enforcement. This assortment of tales from Mr. Guy’s popular newspaper column will forever change how you think about police officers and emergency personnel.

 

According to the book description of Indian Summer: The Siege and Fall of Fort Loudoun, “Built in the heart of the Cherokee Indian Nation by the British Colony of South Carolina, Fort Loudoun was quickly isolated when British-Cherokee relations began to break down. This history details the aftermath of the broken surrender agreement—when nearly all of the British officers died at the hands of their former Cherokee allies.”
