Synopsis

Excerpt from Life and Exploits of S. Glenn Young: World-Famous Law Enforcement Officer "Like chapters from the wildest tales of frontier days when life was cheap and handling a shooting iron was the first law of preservation; like stories of the Wild West, where a sheriff held his job because he was quicker on a trigger than the outlaws with whom he had to deal, and where nerve and a stiff spine were the first requisites in the triumph of justice - such is the history of S. Glenn Young." Thus wrote a contributor to the Washington Post, and the author of this volume believes that his readers will agree completely with the quotation when they have read the story of him whom I shall memorialize in the chapters which follow. The exploits of the hero have been so thrilling that they do not require the embellishment of literary art. Their interest could scarcely be enhanced by the garnishment of fiction, so I have set them down as they actually occurred. In launching this volume upon the sea of public opinion, the writer seeks to acquaint the American people with the work of some of their undecorated heroes, undecorated except for scars such as S. Glenn Young bears upon his person as life tokens of bravery and fidelity to duty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
