Who said policemen don't have a sense of humour? If Glenn Wood is anything to go by, there is no shortage of laughs in the midst of the New Zealand constabulary.
THE LAUGHING POLICEMAN: MY BRILLIANT CAREER IN THE NEW ZEALAND POLICE is the hilarious account of Glenn's adventures as a police cadet from the time he first thought of the idea as a gormless teenage who hoped the uniform might attract girls, to the first nervous moths as a policemand on the beat.
A multitude of disasters accompany the unfortunate Glenn during his tough year the the old Trentham police training college. No one is more surprised than he is to survive, relatively intact, the physical, intellectual and emotional challenges of such a rigorous course and to emerge at the other end as a highly-trained, competent police constable. Well, more or less ... This is a warm and funny book that will appeal to all New Zealanders.
