Tuebor – I Will Defend. An anatomy of a Michigan State Police Trooper. Principia Media, 2016
Tuebor is the story of an honest, hard-working yet naïve young man who chose to leave the safety of civilian life for a career of a dedicated police officer. Whether an aspiring police officer, a current police officer or someone interested in understanding what serving the public is about, these true stories capture the human side of police. Readers will learn about the daily lives of officer travel as they encounter humanity in its various forms. With recent deadly race-related encounters in the news, the public’ perception of the police officers who safeguard them have changed. Hopefully Tuebor will provide a background of understanding to assist in improving the relationship between the public and police.
The book is dedicated to the Michigan State Police and its’ employees on the agencies’ 100th Anniversary (April 19, 1917 – April 19, 2017).
The author is working on a second book about his experiences as a sole practitioner working in many areas of civil law, including: divorces, evictions, plaintiff-products liability, plaintiff-premises liability, plaintiff-automobile negligence, and a few other areas involving many large corporations as well as individual defendants.

Just finished your amazing book. Tears came when I came to the picture of your mom. Your parents would be so proud of you. I thought you explained your job thoroughly. No one thinks about the horrors & and life threatening challenges you face every day and also the fear and anxiousness your family goes through on a daily basis. Loved the bat story too. Bought the book in Petoskey. Think it was their second order. One book left. I tell everyone about it, but won’t share my copy. I wish you all the best. You deserve it❤ God Bless you all. Looking forward to your next book.

I picked up Bob’s book at one of his book signings. While I did not know what to expect, I was very impressed with the author’s background: Not only had he served for decades in the Michigan State Police, he had also practiced law for decades as well. And, in his “spare” time he earned a PhD. Any one of those achievements would have been outstanding all by itself. But, acquiring all three was a phenomenal accomplishment. Michael Carrier, author of Jack Handler murder mystery thriller series, April 25, 2018.
A fascinating book with vivifying experiences. It was interesting to read from the Trooper’s point of view. In light of everything in the media with law enforcement today, I found it amusing, moving, tragic and hard to put down. A good read.
