I Guarded Kings: The Memoirs Of A Political Police Officer is a book written by Harold Brust, a former political police officer who served in the United Kingdom during the 20th century. The book is a memoir that recounts Brust's experiences working as a member of the political police force, tasked with protecting the monarchy and other important figures from potential threats.Throughout the book, Brust shares his firsthand accounts of various events and incidents he witnessed during his time as a political police officer. He provides an insider's perspective on the complex and often dangerous world of political policing, including the challenges of gathering intelligence, conducting surveillance, and responding to security threats.In addition to his experiences as a police officer, Brust also provides insights into the broader political and social context of the times in which he lived and worked. He discusses the impact of major world events such as the Cold War, as well as the changing attitudes towards law enforcement and civil liberties that emerged during the latter half of the 20th century.Overall, I Guarded Kings: The Memoirs Of A Political Police Officer offers a unique and fascinating glimpse into the world of political policing, as well as the broader social and political landscape of the 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in law enforcement, politics, or modern history.This is a new release of the original 1936 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
