Tactical Barbell II: Conditioning is, for my money, the most important book. It contains the "Base Building" program to get your conditioning kick-started, and is the most unique from other fitness offerings for how it explains to incorporate conditioning alongside strength training.
Tactical Barbell 3rd Edition is the current strength training book. It offers strength training that blends very well with the conditioning protocols in the other book, or used on their own. Most programmes you find for strength have workloads that aren't sustainable for people with active jobs, and this book offers several options for how to grow strength and stay useful at work.
Tactical Barbell: Physical Preparation for Law Enforcement is what I assume to be the third book you reference. It's a very focused book, and I've no experience with it myself.
Everything in the books can be scaled; all the conditioning workouts in TBII come with both easier and harder modifications, exercise clusters have their framework and reasoning explained and allow the reader to select specific exercises (can't do push-ups, then do incline push-ups, etc.), strength training uses percentages of your abilities so how strong you are now is irrelevant, and so on.
All good advice in this thread so far. Just to muddy up the waters here's option#3:
