California Burning DVD, A2ZCDs, 2004
The source of almost all of our progress, fire is also one of the most destructive forces in all of nature.
Now, assembled for the first time ever are some of the most interesting vintage films ever collected to document both fire and the bravest men and women in America who try to keep our lives from going up in smoke!
The most dramtaic clip on this amazing DVD is a documentary from the 1920s that shows the 1923 blaze that reduced most of Berkeley, California to ashes.
The other clips on this incredible DVD are devoted to firemen themselves in all of their glory! You will see exactly how firehouses in California operated in the late 1940s and early 1950s. What will amaze you is exactly how closely the problems and challenges that faced these brave men more than 50 years ago mimic the challenges that firefighters still face today.
