A History of Lothian & Borders Police. T.W.Archibald. Signed. Edinburgh.....RARE A History of Lothian & Borders Police. T.W.Archibald. F.S.A. Scot. Signed copy. This is the definitive work of the history of Scottish Law Enforcement, being a meticulous account of the origins of the Lothian and Borders Police force from the days of the Edinburgh Town Guard in the 17th century through to the early 1980's. The writer, the late Tom Archibald, was a well known and highly regarded dealer in Numismatics and Militaria who operated a collectables shop in Edinburgh's Causewayside, almost directly opposite the old Sciennes Police Station. He was a long serving Special Constable and also Chairman of the Lothian and Borders Special Constabulary Association. His extensive research and his access to privately sourced material that was not generally available allied with his great knowledge of the subject, combined with his close involvement with latter-day Police procedures and practices, lends this significant work great authenticity and credibility. The book contains detailed and attributable historical information, stories of famous crimes and incidents, plus the inclusion of a splendid array of good quality photographs of uniforms, vehicles and equipment in use at various times during the forces history. The appendices include a complete alphabetical read more
