It's More than Shootouts and Car Chases takes you inside the life of a Montgomery Police Officer in the capital city of Alabama. Corporal Smith began his career as a nineteen year old police cadet working in an administrative capacity, until attending the police academy in 1983. As a trainee, Smith started the police academy with twenty fellow recruits and sixteen grueling weeks later, graduating with only six. You experience from the beginning what it takes to become a Montgomery police officer. This detailed, factual account provides the reader with an inside look from being shot at as a rookie officer while investigating a car burglary, to being involved in two police shootings and working the deaths of two fellow officers as an evidence technician. Throughout his twenty year career, Corporal Steve Smith shares his experiences that will have you laughing one moment and then a call of "shots fired" will show you the true dangers of being a police officer. As Corporal Steve Smith shares his true life experiences he also shares his faith in the Lord as he serves and protects the citizens of Montgomery.

Stephen Z. Smith retired from the Montgomery Police Department in Montgomery, Alabama in 2001 after 20 years of service. He started his career at nineteen years old as a police cadet working for a year and half before attending the Montgomery Police Academy. He turned twenty-one years old while in the academy and after graduation was assigned to third shift patrol. Throughout his career he has worked in traffic, crime scene investigation and on a high profile zero tolerance drug unit before retiring from 2nd shift patrol as a senior training officer. He retired at 39 years old and is currently employed with the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office in Alabama as a Crime Scene Technician. He also teaches Crime Scene Investigation to other law enforcement agencies.

While with the police department, he organized the local Cops for Christ group in 1992 which led to the creation of the River Region Chaplain Service. This ministry provides chaplains to assist law enforcement officers and fire fighters with pastoral care and emotional support due to job related stress. He is certified through the International Conference of Police Chaplains (I.C.P.C) as a police chaplain and chaplain liaison.
