A Captain from a suburban Fire Department shares over 100 stories from his 30-year career in this collection of anecdotes. ItÕs not all guts and glory and running into burning buildings. ThereÕs also downtime, station life, and side jobs. He has seen people at their best and at their worst and everything in between. Just when you think youÕve seen it all, what looks like a routine call turns out to be anything but routine. Put it all together and you have an interesting study of human nature.
Many of these stories will make you laugh, some will make you cry, and others will just make you stop and think. See life through his eyes, that of a career firefighter.
This book is not just for firefighters. A glossary ensures that everyone can enjoy the stories, including those who may not be familiar with Fire Department jargon.
