Blending history and memoir, retired US Marshal Mike Earp a descendant of the legendary lawman Wyatt Earp offers an exclusive and fascinating behindthescenes look at the most storied law enforcement agency in America, illuminating its vital role in the nation's development for more than two hundred years.Mike Earp spent his career with the US Marshals Service, reaching the numberthree position in the organization's hierarchy before he retired. In this fascinating, eyeopening book, written with the service's full cooperation, he shares his experiences and takes us on a fascinating tour of this extraordinary organization, the oldest, the most effective, and the most dangerous branch of American law enforcement and the least known.Unlike their counterparts in the police and the FBI, US marshals aren't responsible for investigating or prosecuting crimes. They pursue and arrest the most dangerous criminal offenders on US soil, an extraordinarily hazardous job often involving gun battles and physical altercations. Earp takes us back to the service's early days, explaining its creation and its role in the border wars that helped make continental expansion possible. He brings to life the gunslingers and gunfights that have made the marshals legend and explores the service's role today integrating federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in the hunt for the most notorious criminals terrorists, drug lords, and gun runners.
