The Philadelphia Police: Past And Present (1887)

""The Philadelphia Police: Past and Present"" is a historical account of the Philadelphia Police Department, written by Howard O. Sprogle and originally published in 1887. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the department's origins, development, and operations up to the time of its publication. It covers topics such as the early history of law enforcement in Philadelphia, the establishment of the police department, the challenges faced by officers in the line of duty, and the evolution of police technology and tactics. Sprogle also includes biographical sketches of notable police officers and provides insight into the social and political context of law enforcement in Philadelphia during the late 19th century. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of law enforcement in Philadelphia or the development of policing in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
