The Ramblings of a Rustic Copper

by Brian Walter Wood

Brian Wood, a now retired Police Sergeant from the Thames Valley Police, recaps some of his humorous and occasionally serious encounters during his 30 years 'in the force'. His experiences include an instance with the Great Train Robbery for which he was awarded recognition for his participation. "As I walked under the Town Hall arch, on my way off duty I was confronted by a man holding a knife who had suddenly appeared out of the darkness. He advanced screaming that he was going to kill me" Not your normal activity on a peaceful evening in Aylesbury. Look out for Brian's second book aptly called 'More Ramblings of a Rustic Copper' due for publishing in 2014.

Gentle amble

The chapters were short, easy reading whilst keeping you interested. A very good read especially when sitting in a hospital waiting room waiting for a friend.
