This was the author's second (and last) published novel, although an OCLC search turns up two additional entries that seem to reflect a bit on this one: (1) his Ph.D thesis for the University of Cincinnati, in 1965, entitled "An Analysis of the Attitudes of Junior High School Pupils Toward Police Officers; applied to the preparation of a work of juvenile fiction"; and (2) a 1971 book called "Changing Adolescent Attitudes Toward Police; a practical sourcebook for schools and police departments.". Illustrated by (dj painting) Tom Dunn (illustrator).…
