Speak Up, Listen Down by David Howell

i was motivated to write about my experiences in the police, what led me there and how i’ve used my acquired knowledge since, because i felt i’d had an interesting and, to some extent, a unique career path. i thought my insights might be useful to people within the police and in other walks of life. but, on a personal level, i was also motivated to share the good times and the bad times experienced during my 30 years of policing as a written legacy for my three daughters: abby, elsie and izzy.
