River Beat : the story of London's River Police since 1798
-
The history of the River Police, the first modern police force in England, began with rioting, shots and a death. But it helped reform a chaotic and lawless Port of London, which in its heyday saw thousands of ships in a week. Those days are gone, but the policing has continued, and Thames Division celebrates 200 years in 1998.
