The Sonoma Police Report: Funny, Odd Tales from the Wine Country

The Sonoma Police Report celebrates the quirky history of the small town of Sonoma as told through police logs from back in the day, 1980 to 2010. This hilarious compilation of police blotter excerpts from the Sonoma Index-Tribune, kooky tales from locals, and personal stories, will have you chuckling til you choke on your Pinot Noir. Joshua Farrell, who was raised in the town of Sonoma, manages to make us laugh with his irreverent and yet oddly heart-warming valentine to Sonoma and its eccentric residents. With anecdotes ranging from sweet to bizarre, Farrell delivers an entertaining view of Sonoma that is routinely missed by wine connoisseurs, travel writers and tourists. Crooks are caught with steaks in their pants, cops pull over kangaroo wranglers, and cons are chased down the streets of Sonoma wearing bunny slippers. Sonoman's at work, at play and on the lam. Even if Farrell gets run out of town, he'll have left behind a laugh-out-loud collection of oddball tales.
