The CHP became a separate state entity in 1929 and has grown from the early traffic enforcement role to that of one of the premier law enforcement agencies in the United States. Their responsibilities range from patrolling the freeways and county roads of California to providing security for the state capital and other state buildings to protecting the governor and visiting dignitaries from around the world. The CHP has marshaled its forces to restore and maintain peace in times of war, civil unrest, or natural disasters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing to light an entertaining array of anecdotes, this collection of police stories recalls some of the strangest, funniest, and most poignant accounts from the freeways, highways, and country roads throughout California. From the family who pulled over for a picnic on the median strip of a busy freeway to the angelic-looking 5-year-old girl who defused a tense traffic stop by sweetly confessing, "my daddy has a beer under the seat," this is an uncompromising view of the everyday pursuits, enforcement stops, arrests, accidents, and weird encounters that patrolmen must endure. Also featured is a panoply of unlikely drunk-driving suspects, including Santa Claus, a Boy Scout troop leader, a newlywed couple, and an airline pilot on his way to fly a plane; the traffic stop of an elderly driver whose license had expired 35 years earlier--and who explained he was on his way to the DMV; and many more hilarious, odd, and tragic stories of life and death on the open road. Encouraging a renewed respect for the men and women in uniform who risk their lives to protect the public, this compilation also contains advice on highway safety and how to behave when pulled over by a patrol officer.

Book excerpt: Over the years law enforcement agencies throughout America have acquired a blemished reputation for the occasional enforcement contact that society has considered to be a crime perpetrated against citizens, whether innocent or not. Even the California Highway Patrol has endured an unfortunate criminal act, when one of its own murdered an innocent woman in San Diego during the Christmas Season of 1986. By writing this book, it is my intention to contribute to the reparation of the tarnished reputations of all American law enforcement agencies. I write this book now after 25 years, since my retirement from the California Highway Patrol. I had always intended to document the testimonials of my many close encounters of a God kind and of the literal hundreds of salvation experiences that I was privileged enjoy. This book contains just a few, and I might add that these are the most memorable. It has been nearly two decades since I last spoke of them. But this in no means diminishes there impact and spiritual import, since anything of the spirit is timeless and therefore eternal, even as God, Himself. It is my sincere prayer for you that your heart will be stirred towards Godliness as you read of my memoirs and that as you do so, your soul will be refreshed with His love and goodness! As to the names of those individuals involved, I intentionally used fictitious names, partial names or initials for privacy purposes. However with permission, I have given notable mention of my good friend and brother in arms, State Traffic Officer, Allen Wilkerson. Respectfully Submitted, Ed Marr, STO (retired)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American diners began to flock to Chinese restaurants more than a century ago, making Chinese food the first mass-consumed cuisine in the United States. By 1980, it had become the country's most popular ethnic cuisine. Chop Suey, USA offers the first comprehensive interpretation of the rise of Chinese food, revealing the forces that made it ubiquitous in the American gastronomic landscape and turned the country into an empire of consumption. Engineered by a politically disenfranchised, numerically small, and economically exploited group, Chinese food's tour de America is an epic story of global cultural encounter. It reflects not only changes in taste but also a growing appetite for a more leisurely lifestyle. Americans fell in love with Chinese food not because of its gastronomic excellence but because of its affordability and convenience, which is why they preferred the quick and simple dishes of China while shunning its haute cuisine. Epitomized by chop suey, American Chinese food was a forerunner of McDonald's, democratizing the once-exclusive dining-out experience for such groups as marginalized Anglos, African Americans, and Jews. The rise of Chinese food is also a classic American story of immigrant entrepreneurship and perseverance. Barred from many occupations, Chinese Americans successfully turned Chinese food from a despised cuisine into a dominant force in the restaurant market, creating a critical lifeline for their community. Chinese American restaurant workers developed the concept of the open kitchen and popularized the practice of home delivery. They streamlined certain Chinese dishes, such as chop suey and egg foo young, turning them into nationally recognized brand names.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on our country, Reserve Coast Guard Investigative Service Special Agent Michael Grogan received active duty orders and became one of the Coast Guard’s first ever sea marshals. Sea marshals were tasked with preventing terrorists from taking positive control of ships and running them into the Golden Gate Bridge, other vessels, a pier, or other target of opportunity. Grogan and his fellow sea marshals realized even crew members could be members of Al Qaeda or Al Qaeda supporters. The ships sea marshals protected consisted of oil tankers; container ships, cruise ships, and bulk carriers. These ships came from all around the world. Grogan transferred military branches and became an Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID) special agent serving in several active duty assignments to include Iraq; Afghanistan, and the Pentagon. After twenty-two years of military service, Grogan retired at the rank of Chief Warrant Officer 3. In his civilian life, at the age of nineteen, Grogan worked as a reserve police officer for the Los Gatos, California, Police Department. At the age of twenty, Grogan spent a thirty-year career with the Millbrae, California, Police Department and retired at the rank of Captain. While at the Millbrae Police Department, Grogan faced two of the greatest tragedies of his life; the murder of a close friend and fellow police officer and the drowning of an infant whom he drove to the hospital, but could not save.

Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Jennifer A. Nielsen comes a thrilling World War II story of espionage and intrigue, as one girl races to crack a coded message to save her father and the French resistance. Six hundred and fifty-seven days ago, Meg Kenyon's father left their home in France to fight for the Allies in World War II, and that was the last time Meg saw him. Recently, she heard he was being held prisoner by the Nazis, a terrible sentence from which Meg fears he'll never return. All she has left of him are the codes he placed in a jar for her to decipher, an affectionate game the two of them shared. But the codes are running low, and soon there'll be nothing left of Papa for Meg to hold on to at all. Suddenly, an impossible chance to save her father falls into Meg's lap. After following a trail of blood in the snow, Meggie finds an injured British spy hiding in her grandmother's barn. Captain Stewart tells her that a family of German refugees must be guided across Nazi-occupied France to neutral Spain, whereupon one of them has promised to free Meg's father. Captain Stewart was meant to take that family on their journey, but too injured to complete the task himself, he offers it to Meg, along with a final code from Papa to help complete the mission -- perhaps the most important, and most difficult, riddle she's received yet. As the Nazis flood Meg's village in fierce pursuit, she accepts the duty and begins the trek across France. Leading strangers through treacherous territory, Meg faces danger and uncertainty at every turn, all the while struggling to crack her father's code. The message, as she unravels it, reveals secrets costly enough to risk the mission and even her own life. Can Meg solve the puzzle, rescue the family, and save her father?

Book excerpt: Unassuming Crescent County, California, is infested with murder, incest, mayhem, greed and self-serving political factions, artfully concealed by virtue of its charming facade. It is an isolated realm of superficial religious conservatism, where murky characters exploit the law, and manipulate truth in the local media, stubbornly embracing the Good Ol' Boy mentality in one of the most progressive regions of the United States. Fish Stories Live From Saraville is the fourth novel from author and California native Karen Kennedy Samoranos, and encompasses the darker, fatal side of author Samoranos' Saraville Series. From an abusive manipulator; a judge on the take; a homicidal police-chief, and the rebirth of white supremacy; to a failed high school shooting with a lethal twist, Fish Stories travels down the murky backroads of humanity. With its stark narrative of unrequited lust, avarice, political favor and damaged psyches, Fish Stories endures as an evocative and candid examination of the malignant architecture of human behavior, in this fictional recount of life in northeastern California.

Book excerpt: The third of Russ Kick’s bestselling Disinformation Guides gathers another all-star line-up of exposés: Juries have ruled in recent trials that Watergate was really about a Democratic Party prostitution ring. Ignored in the U.S. and distorted elsewhere, the Milosevic tribunal hasn’t gone the way authorities were anticipating. (We present exclusive first-hand reporting from the trial). Most theologians don’t believe in the physical Resurrection of Jesus. In 2001, the U.S. uncovered the biggest spy ring in the country since WWII, yet most people never heard about it. The U.S. is engaging in bioweapons research that violates international treaties and federal law. (The New York Times knows about this but refuses to report it). Teddy Roosevelt and Wall Street created Panama for profit. Gandhi wasn’t so wonderful, after all. These are just some of the revelations in the third of our all-star anthologies. Following up on bestsellers You Are Being Lied To and Everything You Know Is Wrong, editor Russ Kick has again assembled a line-up of leading investigative journalists, academics, activists, commentators, and independent researchers, covering CIA assassinations, the anthrax attacks, fluoride, TWA 800, Abraham Lincoln, child protective services, the tobacco industry, forgotten uprisings, the government's missing trillions, even more revelations about 9/11 and much more. Contributors include Gary Webb, Greg Palast, Noreena Hertz, Howard Zinn, Douglas Valentine, Jim Hougan, Kristina Borjesson, Arianna Huffington and many more well-known writers—some of whom you’ll be extremely surprised to see in these pages!

Book excerpt: Cops, Crooks and other Crazies is the inside story of policing California streets and highways. It is all here: the humorous, sad, tragic, violent and incredible, straight from the streets and highways of California from Yreka to the Mexican border. Plus Nuttall's eye-opening investigation of the unsolved D.B. Cooper skyjacking case. From walking foot beats as a rookie cop in San Diego's Skid Row to protecting President Ronald Reagan and the Queen of England during their historic meeting in Santa Barbara, Captain Nuttall tells what police work is really like as he observed and experienced it for 31 years during the greatest evolution of law enforcement in American History-on the San Diego Police Department and the California Highway Patrol.
