Sam Cowley: Legendary Lawman

Richard L. Emery, Springville, Utah: Cedar Fort, 2004, 5.5x8.5" softbound, 91 pages.

J. Edgar Hoover said Sam Cowley was the bravest man he ever knew.

In the throes of the depression, America's hertland lay under seige to gangsters. When John Dillinger and Baby-Face Nelson slipped through the police barricade at Little Bohemia, Wisconsin in 1934, Hoover picked a former missionary from Preston, Idaho to lead the government assault on Chicago-area gangs: Sam Cowley.

Here is a window to Sam Cowley's life-his selfless partiotism, courage, and leadership. Reading this book, you'll come to know a friend and a hero worthy of the title-a hero for the ages. And you'll have one blazing story worth telling around the campfire-a scoutmaster's classic.

Richard L. Emery wrote for several Midwestern newspapers and radio stations. He graduated from the University of Illinois with a master's degree in political science and is a certified public accountant. He has written several articles for The Ensign, and the Church News. He lives in Madison, Wisconsin. He is a high priest in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He has served in many callings in the Church, including ward clerk, bishop's counselor, high priests' group leader, stake director of public affairs, and stake executive secretary. He with his wife Helen recently served as a senior couple in the California Los Angeles Mission.

Richard has held various positions in state and federal government, including auditor with the Internal Revenue Service and investigator with the Federal Energy Department in the 1970s.
