Abstract
Among law enforcement institutions, the Canadian North..West Mounted Police occu.. pies an exalted place in the public mind. In this present volume, historian William M. Baker provides a helpful corrective to the sometimes exaggerated picture of this famous constabulary by presenting reports and other documents from the papers of Richard Burton Deane, a veteran of more than three decades (1883 .. 1914) as a Mounted Policeman in AI.. berta.
