MILWAUKEE -- Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke is writing a book.
Clarke signed a book agreement with Worthy Publishing Group, a division of Worthy Inc. -- a Delaware company located in Franklin, Tennessee.
The book, titled Rebel Sheriff: Beyond the hashtags of race, crime and politics, will chronicle Sheriff Clarke's nearly four decades in law enforcement, including his 24 years with the Milwaukee Police Department, that culminated as Milwaukee County's top cop.
The story will detail how aspects of his upbringing like faith, education and family influence shaped his views on race, crime and politics.
The book is tentatively scheduled for release in 2017.
