About The Author
Reader Reviews
Published in part as a fundraiser for the "National Peace Officers Memorial Service Fund," which certainly seems a worthy cause, this volume purports to share the cooking secrets of those who keep us safe. It's a fairly extensive collection of recipes with cute names, some from actual police personnel, but most from actors who have played police personnel on TV and in films, and some of which actually are quite good (I tried making them). They are interspersed with black-and-white photos, again not so much of real cops (though there are a few famous ones, such as Buford Pusser, whose story was fictionalized in the "Walking Tall" films of the 1970s) as of TV and film actors playing police. Just as there are some good recipes, there are some fun memory-jogging photos. How else would I have remembered that Al Lewis (Grandpa on "The Munsters") also had a continuing role in that TV classic, "Car 54, Where Are You?" It's worth remembering the humble TV beginnings of such megastars as Michael Douglas ("The Streets of San Francisco"). Thus, this volume is part rather utilitarian cookbook, part nostalgia trip for addicts of shoot-em-up TV shows and (mostly) B-movies. It was given to me as a gift. I don't think I would have bought it myself, but I have enjoyed it.
