(3) YA Great American Memorials series. Photographs by Jennifer Ashabranner. Illustrated with color photos, the accessible text explains how the memorial was authorized, funded, and designed to honor officers who have died in the line of duty. This human cost is especially evident in a chapter profiling some of the officers represented on the walls of the memorial, and in a description of a solemn candlelight vigil held every year during National Police Week.
