  • Hands Up: Thirty-Five Years of Detective Life in the Mountains and on the Plains

    John W. Cook

    Paperback (Univ Pr of the Pacific, Aug. 1, 2001)
    Hands up, originally published in 1897, is a book of reminiscences by General David J. Cook, Chief of the Rocky Mountain Detective Association. He organized the Rocky Mountain Detective Association and remained with it for over thirty-five years. The stories told are all true records, but while their number is quite considerable they are only a portion of the thrilling experiences – whether his own or those of officers of his association – with which his mind is stored.
