1) Book was an Alliance Intelligence officer during the war; his particular job centered around tracking down the Browncoat supply lines and cutting them off. When the war ended, he transfered that skill set to tracking weapon stockpilers who seemed to be getting ideas about rebelling all over again.
2) About six months after the Independents surrendered, he was assigned to get intelligence and perform interrogation for an Operative. The assignment lasted a month... less than a minute after it concluded, Book was sending his resignation to headquarters.
3) One day Book just started hiking into the hills of Persephone on a whim, feeling lost and wanting to become more so. Eight hours later (in what he would later describe as "divine accident"), he stumbled into a valley and found himself before an isolated monastery, and the rest is history.
