Since the earliest years of city history, New York's firefighters have put their lives on the line to protect its citizens from fire.
Written by experts on Fire Department history, this book documents the evolution of city firefighting from the earliest bucket brigades through to the post 9/11 Department, largely through the collection of the The New York Fire Museum. Along the way, it documents the organizational improvements and political changes that have made city firefighting significantly more effective."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
