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.

REVIEWS
Hi! my name is Jonathan,
I am 13 and like this book so much because it tells me what I need to do to if I want to become a Michigan State Police officer! I got so much out of this book that even YouTube videos don’t tell. I think this book is great for everyone that wants to be a officer. I wish there will be people my age that want to help in crime and keep people safe! We need more people because officers around America need our help! So please read this book…You will love it!
My attitude is a little different than most in the MSP, simply because “I never wanted to become a COP” (long story), but
This may be the only book that I’ve read over 3 times, except for the bible, and perhaps the MSP “Official Orders” that I often used to annoy useless bureaucrats. Suggest that any applicant, Trooper, or Retiree read it in detail. Richard Humbarger, MSP Retired. 5-8-2019.
For the man or woman aspiring to a career in Law Enforcement, this is a must read. For those who have traveled the “same journey”, the author has, it brings back fond memories and why we chose that career path. Bob has captured the mindset, grit, and courage it takes to dedicate his or her life to this noble profession. Get the book, read it twice, and pass it on.
