See the Woman Badge of Honor Yesterday is Dead Deadly Justice City of Passion Freedom Dance A Man in Heat Naked Justice Dallas Barnes is no rookie. Actually, his career began decades ago. He had served in the Marine Corps, had spent a couple of years as a cop in his hometown of Lewistown, Pennsylvania, and in 1968, Dallas joined the ranks of the Lo...
About this time, another Pennsylvanian Marine-turned-LAPD officer, Joseph Wambaugh (there must be something to that combination), published his first book, The New Centurions. It hit the bookstores in January of 1971 and made the New York Times Best Seller list in February of that year, remaining on it for thirty-two weeks. Publishers couldn’t igno...

Another friend sent me Yesterday is Dead, a book that reads like a Police Story ep...
And what did the pioneer of cops-turned-author himself have to say about it? I reached out to Joseph Wambaugh and asked for a word about Dallas. This is what he said: “In more than four decades Dallas Barnes has immeasurably enriched the library of American cop/crime literature with his life experience and great talent.” Of course, they both have.
