Like his Wild West counterpart, the modern bountyman tracks the bail fugitive, arrests him and surrenders him to the police - all for the love of money. Learn how to talk your way into a bondsman's confidence, acquire the necessary tools, track and subdue the fugitive and more. With an estimated 6 million bail jumpers walking the streets, bounty hunting can be a goldmine for the smart and the daring. Includes a state-by-state list of the laws of bounty hunting.

Just Stories...Not Very Helpful,
By
This review is from: Bounty Hunter (Paperback)
I think the title of this review says it all. I read this book about ten years ago and was flipping through it the other day. Along with its "sequel" (Bail Enforcer) this is more a collection of stories and not a truly helpful tome on the study of bounty hunting. I have read a lot better. DO yourself a favor and steer clear of this text unless you just want purely supplemental material. Do not use this as the sole facts.

The Bible of books for Bounty Hunters.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bounty Hunter (Paperback)
115 pages of essential information for anyone interested in Fugitive Recovery. Put your head together with the two, "Best Known", modern Bounty men in the U.S. Bob Burton and Ralph "Papa" Thorson as they pass on their secrets to you and I, that we might "Learn to Stay Alive."

It's OK...I think,
By NelsonFlashlites (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bounty Hunter (Paperback)
I'm no lawyer, so I don't know whether he's legit, but the book didn't meet my expectations. If Bob's telling the truth, then bounty hunting is not something I want to do.
It did contain some interesting stories, though.
