Adapted from Within Arm’s Length for a younger audience, a rare inside look at the Secret Service from an agent who protected three US presidents.
Ever wonder what it would be like to have a job where your life was on the line? Where at any time you might be asked to make the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty?
Dan Emmett was eight years old when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. From that moment forward, he knew he wanted to become a Secret Service agent, one of an elite group of highly trained men and women dedicated to preserving the life of the president of the United States at any cost. Armed with single-minded determination and a never-quit attitude, he did just that. Selected over thousands of other highly qualified applicants, he was eventually chosen as one of the best of the best and provided protection worldwide for presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush.
I Am a Secret Service Agent depicts the crucial duties and challenges of this extraordinary job, from conducting presidential advances, to driving the president in a bulletproof limousine, to flying with him on Air Force One. With fascinating anecdotes, Emmett weaves keen insight into his account of the unique culture and history of the Secret. I Am a Secret Service Agent is a must-read for young adults interested in a career in federal law enforcement.
