The Living Legend: The Story of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police by Alan Phillips is a comprehensive history of the iconic Canadian law enforcement agency. The book covers the origins of the Mounted Police in the late 19th century, their role in the settlement of the Canadian West, and their evolution into a modern police force.Phillips details the many challenges faced by the Mounted Police over the years, including their efforts to maintain order in remote and often hostile regions of the country, their involvement in major criminal investigations, and their work to protect Canada's borders and sovereignty.The book also explores the culture and traditions of the Mounted Police, including their distinctive dress, their use of horses, and their role in Canadian national identity. Phillips provides numerous anecdotes and stories about individual officers and their experiences, bringing the history of the force to life.Overall, The Living Legend is an engaging and informative account of one of Canada's most revered institutions, and will appeal to anyone interested in Canadian history, law enforcement, or the role of the state in shaping national identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
