My Long Journey in Baltimore

My Long Journey in Baltimore is a collection of poetry sharing author Lawerence E. Mize's personal tales of surviving and overcoming obstacles. Mize grew up in Baltimore with a difficult childhood and alcoholic parents. He dropped out of high school and served in Vietnam. Returning home, he continued to serve as a police officer in the Baltimore City Police Department and spent fifteen years as a District Court Bailiff for the State of Maryland. Mize's reflections cover his life's events and experiences as a child, a man, a soldier, and an officer.
