Twenty-Five Years on the Streets after Dark (Abridged, Annotated)
As a 19-year-old soldier in the Civil War, C.B. Aubrey was a newsboy in the famed Iron Brigade and spent a short time in the notorious Confederate Libby prison. But this highly amusing and interesting book that he wrote much later is mostly about what it was like to live in and patrol little Milwaukee, Wisconsin for twenty-five years as a special policeman and night watchman.This is a fun look into the past, when a watchman walked a beat in an American city and knew everybody and everything going on around the town.For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
