Nuthin' Like the Truth by Harry J Morris

This is a third instalment of funny, strange and utterly true tales from Harry, the Polis. The third Harry the Polis book, "Nuthin' Like the Truth" continues to expose the lighter side of our industrious police force. Harry Morris's time with the Glasgow and Strathclyde constabulary, or 'polis' for short, hasn't robbed him of his sense of humour, and every wily witness, cocky con, and sarcastic sergeant he ever rubbed up against is here in page after page of humorous stories. Full of hilarious anecdotes, oddball characters, quick comebacks and unlikely excuses, "Nuthin' Like the Truth" shows true Scottish humour at its finest. There's plenty more material from Harry's twenty-nine year career in the rank and file: including Harry's own guide to chat up lines and how to deal with inept post office robbers with nothing but a shovel and a minimum of fuss. Already described by Alex Dickson of Radio Clyde as "classics of our time" and by Bob Shields of the Daily Record as "a must read for anyone who likes to walk about with a grin on their face", "Nuthin' Like the Truth" is sure to arrest you with its irrepressible mirth.
Harry Morris served for twenty-nine years in various posts throughout Strathclyde Police. He first began writing down the funny stories that surrounded him as a way to brighten up the internal newsletter, but making people laugh soon became Harry the Polis's real passion.
