Testimonial: From: Bill E. Branscum, Investigator Oracieintl@aol.com - PO Box 10728, Naples, FL 34101 - The book, " Manual For Legal Investigators, A Complete College Course in Investigations," is a 350 plus page black covered hardbound book, written by John R. Rose. In a world of bogus offerings to novice investigators trying to learn, this is a good book where the author has a lot to say and went to some trouble as far as the presentation. It is not a casual read. While it may add nothing but an attractive addition to the bookshelf for the most knowledgeable among us. I found a lot in there I did not know and not a lot I would quibble with [that's pretty remarkable] The ISBN number is 1-881170-05-5, Copyright 2001. It is a college textbook and better than many of those I was required to buy - but that was a long time ago. You can order from your favorite book store or send an e-mail to the moderator at RThomas007@aol.com. I don't know the author and don't care where you buy the book as I don't do the endorsement thing. If you buy it in an effort to learn about this business and think it was a rip, I'll send you a check. If anyone knows John and how to get in touch with him, I'd like to buy an autographed copy.
