City Ablaze: With the World's Busiest Firefighters

By Martin Lloyd-Elliott

The fireman's world has traditionally been a private one: fire-fighters are the silent service, always playing down their image as heroes. Fireman have inspired writers and painters since the beginning of the last century, yet until recently any portrayal of their rescues has been a romanticised account, not documentary. This book is a comprehensive study of one fire station, its men, their lives and their work.
