Fighting Fire: Trucks, Tools and Tactics
by Larry Shapiro
|
|
|
|
|
Nothing stirs the blood like the flashing lights and blaring siren of a
fire truck racing to fight a blaze. The action photography in this book
captures that excitement in all of its forms. In powerful, on-the-scene
pictures and text, author/photographer Shapiro explores the special
techniques and equipment brought to bear on fires in cities and
suburbs, rural outposts and wilderness, in homes and industrial
structures. He also takes a close look at hair-raising rescues and
other "non-firefighting" tasks that firefighters find themselves facing.
From bold photography and detailed descriptions of fire fighting to
close-up looks at the fire house and its full array of equipment--trucks,
ladders, pumpers, and tankers--this book conveys both the
technical nitty-gritty and the fiery action of meeting and containing
one of nature's most brutal forces.

Illustrated Encyclopedia of American Fire Engine
In the main this book is an alphabetical listing of dedicated
motor fire apparatus builders—companies that designed and
built pumpers, ladder trucks, rescue and other types of motor
fire apparatus in their own factories—from the frame-up on their
own custom chassis or on commercially-available domestic
truck chassis. Also included are a number of commercial
chassis makers such as International, Freightliner, Kenworth
and Peterbilt which forged special alliances with various fire
apparatus builders, and which sometimes made and
marketed fire apparatus under their own names. This
encyclopedia is a vital reference source for libraries, fire
station, historians, fire apparatus enthusiasts, and anyone
involved in or enamored with the fire apparatus industry.

Ford Fire Trucks
This book serves as a pictorial history of the role Ford
chassis have played in the evolution of fire apparatus. Fire
trucks of all types built on the famous Model T, the long
standing F-Series, the venerable C-Series, the honorary
Louisville-Line, and other miscellaneous Ford models have
prolifically and efficiently served towns small and big alike
since the advent of motorization. This chronicle pays homage
to the contributions this automotive legend has made to the
fire service with a brilliant display of classic rigs and modern
machines, with representatives from over 150 fire apparatus
manufacturers – from the glamour queens themselves to
smaller builders with characteristics just as neat as their big
name peers.
