GREATEST FIREFIGHTER STORIES NEVER TOLD, Santangelo, Bovsun & Zulo, 2002
The compelling, in-depth stories in The Greatest Firefighter Stories Never Told will put names and faces to these most deserving of worldwide recognition – American firefighters who risk their lives daily, many times without any acknowledgment, let alone fame or fortune.
These fresh and fascinating true accounts focus on real heroes going beyond the call of duty – heroes like the Dallas firefighter who shimmied down a cable in a smoke-filled elevator shaft of a burning high-rise to make a rescue or the Boston firefighter who jumped fifteen feet into a pit of fire because he knew that to do nothing meant certain death for a trapped victim.
