A former City of Milwaukee firefighter, the author writes his
memoir with candor, depth, spice and emotional insight. He lays out
the tumultuous events that led him as a youth into the profession,
and the wealth of eye-opening experiences along the way. He plumbs
the character of the firefighters and paramedics who answer the
call for rescue--but also the character of those who make the call,
the rescuer and the rescued.
The author keeps the reader close with vivid details of
fighting fire and dealing with the anguish of loss and destruction.
He pulls no punches; he also describes the promotion process, the
politics in stations and in the service as a whole, the struggle of
teaching young firefighters, and the heavy price of dedication. The
book fully displays the humanity of members of the fire service and
the flavor of fire service tradition.
