Title: Jungleland Celebrated in New Book
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
Date: 7/4/2011 New from Arcadia Publishing's Images of America
series is San Luis Obispo Sheriff's Department. In over 200 vintage
photographs, local author Gary L. Hoving has amassed a collection
of antique law enforcement badges, artifacts, and photographs of
days gone by. He has also inherited the extensive collection of
Undersheriff Albert Call, all of which is generously shared in
these pages. Since 1850, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's
Department has proudly served the community as the chief law
enforcement agency. The office of sheriff was originally created by
the California Constitution to meet the public safety needs of each
county. From horseback to gigabit, the sheriff and his deputies
have responded to the needs of the citizens by providing the
highest quality of protection. While the manner in which service is
delivered has changed significantly since 1850, the quality of
protection has remained high throughout history and is chronicled
in this unique portrayal. Available at area bookstores, independent
retailers, and online retailers, or through Arcadia Publishing at
