With sirens screaming, this blazing book delivers a stunning tribute to firefighting history over the past 200 years. From human bucket brigades and horse-drawn steam pumpers, Fire Engines arrives on-scene to fans the flames of technology from the earliest rigs to today's powerful trucks, engines and rescue vehicles. Rugged workhorses from American LaFrance, Emergency One, Mack, Ahrens-Fox and Seagrave, together with first-hand interviews and vintage advertisements, present a red-hot look at the battle to control civilization's oldest enemy.

Great Book For Fire Buffs

I love this book. I've been fascinated by fire engines & trucks since my earliest memory of my mother taking my younger brother to a San Jose fire station in the early 60s to get shots.

This book was written by someone who is truly enthusiastic about the subject matter. Great history. Great technical info. Beautiful pix. If you like fire engines, you'll love this book.

Great gift for that firefighter in your life!

I bought this book as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend, a volunteer firefighter since he was old enough to serve...and he loved it! He has barely put it down since he got this and has been raving about it to the other guys at the firehouse!
