It also tells of forgotten but no less compelling dramas such as the Becker-Rosenthal case, in which a police lieutenant went to the electric chair, and the death of Joe Petrosino, a New York City detective gunned down on the streets of Palermo, Sicily, after his cover was blown by the police commissioner. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJames Lardner and Thomas Reppetto, who know the police world from the inside, throw today's headlines into vivid relief by taking us back more than 150 years through a succession of immigrant waves, long hot summers, and career-destroying crises and scandals. Fascinating as history, NYPD is also a telling look at the fears, the lore, the slang, the secrets, and the rituals of a chronically misunderstood profession.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJames Lardner\u003c\/b\u003e, a writer for\u003ci\u003e The New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e and\u003ci\u003e The Atlantic Monthly\u003c\/i\u003e, is the author of \u003ci\u003eCrusader: The Hell-Raising Police Career of Detective David Durk\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Reppetto\u003c\/b\u003e is a former Chicago commander of detectives and has been the president of New York City's Citizens Crime Commission for twenty years.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 9.23 x 6.32 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 01, 2001\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47533677150457,"sku":"9780805067378","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/hgyZzWHV0o9780805067378_ecb72ac7-f33a-4bc9-86a1-9f09c2a1149a.webp?v=1773874825","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/nypd-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
