Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Retired from 26 years as a policeman in Kent County, Ingelton presents the views for and against the British police carrying arms on a regular basis. He looks at the history of violent crime in the country, violence against the representatives of law and order, and the extent to which British police have had recourse to firearms in the past. He also compares the situation in other countries. He takes no position on the question, other than to hope that it will be settled with the fullest possible knowledge. Distributed in the US by ISBS.
