"A top notch memoir of an exciting period in the career of a great cop. Al Sheppard tells it like it is!" -Captain Tom Walker, NYPD, Ret., Author of "Fort Apache." "Al Sheppard was on the front lines of the most difficult job in police work. E-Men risk their lives every day in many different ways. They are great cops and Al's memoir is right on the mark." -Detective Sgt. Joseph Coffey, NYPD Ret., Author of "The Coffey Files." Sheppard served in the NYPD during the "urban warfare" years and received his "Baptism of Fire" at the "Williamsburg Siege." He was a decorated hero of the NYPD and member of the elite Emergency Services Unit (ESU). In his book, "E-Man" Al takes the reader on a non-stop roller coaster ride of emotions as he reveals life on the streets through the eyes of a combatant during the turbulent times and the work of the Emergency Services Unit-the same unit that the Police call when they need Help. -Detective Lt. Vern Gelbreth, NYPD-Homicide Commander "Al Sheppard is the REAL DEAL, and "E-Man" chronicles his years in the NYPD's Emergency Services Unit (ESU) with heart-pounding excitement. Sheppard was on the front lines during the era of Vietnam, Black Power, and the Urban Drug Wars, and he survived it all to tell the tale in a book rich with insider's detail and a wry sense of humor. Prepare yourself for a rollicking ride: "E-Man" is the best New York cop book to come down the pike since "The French Connection."" -T.J. English, Author of "Paddy Whacked" and "The Westies"
