NYPD: Stories of Survival from the World’s Toughest Beat

Submitted by Sarah D. Bunting on March 5, 2007 – 2:14 AMNo Comment

Can someone explain to me, please, how it is that pieces which previously appeared in reputable publications with copy editors then wind up riddled with typos in a compilation? Argh. It’s really hard for me to dig into a book when I keep seeing that stuff. It’s a good range of pieces, but a few of the very old pieces are too long, and a few of the newer ones, I’d read before. A bit of a letdown. (3/13/06)
