First Edition
Hardcover first edition - First printing. Autobiography, written and published when the author was a city councilman and police commissioner in Salinas, CA. Born in the Ozarks of Missouri, he led an adventurous life including time on the Mexican border, working in the California oil fields at McKittreck, and a short but successful period as a heavyweight boxer, while he was still working as an insurance salesman. At one point, he wound up on a Georgia chain gang for riding on a freight train - later he was the chief of police (and the only police officer) in McKittreck. INSCRIBED on the half title page and dated in 1937. 303 pp. Good condition overall - spine slant and some sunning to the covers - but a tight and sturdy copy. No dust jacket.
