About this product

Product Information

Since Benjamin Franklin organised the first fire department, the Union Fire Company of Philadelphia, in 1736, firefighters have braved the hazards of smoke and fire to bring everyone out, no matter what the risk. Now the spirit and essence of the firefighting community is celebrated for the first time in a definitive, magnificently illustrated, large-format book, published with the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. Written by an outstanding team, including historians, authors, and experts associated with the firefighting community, as well as several distinguished active and retired Chiefs and officers, the book has over 350 pages of riveting and informative text and stories of the firefighting experience. Essays on urban, volunteer, wildland, even military firefighting; history; training; trucks and apparatus; emergency medical services; search and rescue; and terrorism bring to life these courageous people and their stories. The thoughtful incorporation of full-colour and vintage photography and painting complements the text while adding the excitement that only spectacular illustrations can bring to a book.The book enables the history of America's bravest profession to be cherished permanently in a handsome package that all firefighters will be proud to own and -- with its unique medallion-inlaid cover -- to display. This book will be read again and again by past and present firefighters, their family and friends, and the countless others that have been inspired by the exploits of those who run towards danger.

I received the "The Incredible Discovery of Noah's Ark" book on 8 December 2023 early within the original eBay estimated delivery date of 7-12 December 2023 tightly wrapped in a poly mailer slightly different than the listing page description with some damage to the spine and pages of the book. After messaging the seller I was generously refunded 50% of the book price. The book is intact with full content. This seller made extra efforts to make this a satisfactory purchase. Thank You!

  • Firefighters (2003 Hardcover)

    The Firefighters (2003) book was a pleasant surprise, because it was so much nicer than I expected. It's a large, beautiful book which makes a great addition to a firefighter's library. This copy, although a used copy, looked brand new. It was a surprise Christmas gift for my son, who has been a Tulsa firefighter for almost 25 years. Not knowing whether or not he already had a copy, I was very pleased when he opened the gift and said he didn't own a copy of it. Firefighting is a family tradition with us... My grandfather retired from the TFD, my father retired from the TFD, my son is the Deputy Fire Chief with TFD, and my grandson is a fireman in a Tulsa suburb. This is a great book which chronicles of the history of firefighting.

  • GREAT HARD TO FIND BOOK!!!

    I'm a firefighter in a suburb of Chicago and hope to get on Chicago one day. I started the job at 15 and am currently 20 years old. I love the job with a passion and this book will always remind me of what firefighting really is like. The pictures are amazing; full color, big, and there are a variety of them. From paintings to movie posters. The Information in this book is also tremendous!! I mean come on....over 300 pages?? Thats a TON of info. From everything from the history of firefighting to the current day of post-9/11 firefighting. This book makes a great gift for anybody. I am most positive that retired firefighters will enjoy it but they are not the only ones. Great for retirement gifts. This book will definetly make the past, present, or future member of the fire ...

  • A warm, beautiful tribute to the profession.

    Purchased this for my son, a recent graduate of fire school. Beautifully crafted, inside and out - rich embossed cover, clean binding, rich papers. The content - both photographic and essay - is excellent, cover to cover. The stories will both warm your heart and make you cry; witness the trials and long recovery of a firefighter who suffered serious burns when he answered the call to duty. Highly recommend this for anyone interested in the firefighting profession, past and present. A true tribute to these heroes.
