Book Synopsis Notes from the Firehouse by : D E. MCCOURT
Download or read book Notes from the Firehouse written by D E. MCCOURT and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir from a retired firefighter about firefighting, rescue calls and life around the firehouse. It's not all about fire - that's lesson number one. No, it's a collection of things: assisting an injured person at three o'clock in the morning, calming a child in a traumatic situation, saving the belongings of a family from the ravages of a fire, seeing people in every heartbreaking situation imaginable and trying to help them, while not losing yourself in the process.And it's about the insanity found in the firehouse - to the author it's the Cracker Factory - and the politics and pettiness that try unsuccessfully to steal the joy from the job. The book doesn't dwell on the nuts and bolts of firefighting, as much as it documents the human side of the job.

Download or read book Flirting with Fire written by Kate Meader and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first installment in Hot in Chicago, a brand-new, sizzling series from Kate Meader that follows a group of firefighting foster siblings and their blazing hot love interests! Savvy PR guru Kinsey Taylor has always defined herself by her career, not her gender. That is, until she moved from San Francisco to Chicago to be with her fiancé who thought she wasn’t taking her “job” of supporting him in his high-powered career seriously enough—and promptly dumped her for a more supportive and “feminine” nurse. Now, as the new assistant press secretary to Chicago’s dynamic mayor, she’s determined to keep her eye on the prize: no time to feel inferior because she’s a strong, kick-ass woman, and certainly no time for men. But that all changes when she meets Luke Almeida, a firefighter as searingly sexy as he is quick-tempered. He’s also the second oldest of the Firefightin’ Dempseys, a family of foster siblings who have committed their lives to the service—if Luke’s antics don’t get him fired first. When Luke goes one step too far and gets into a bar brawl with the Chicago Police Department, Kinsey marches into Luke’s firehouse and lays down the law on orders from the mayor. But at Engine Co. 6, Luke Almeida is the law. And he’s not about to let Kinsey make the rules.
Book Synopsis The Fire House by : Michael William Molden
Download or read book The Fire House written by Michael William Molden and published by Cauliay Publishing & Dist. This book was released on 2006-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fire House is a work of fiction; that must be made clear from the beginning. It is ghost story in the traditional sense of the word and yes, it centres on a haunted house. However, what makes this story so chillingly unique is the fact that it is based on actual events. Those events took place back in 1979 and for several dark months they brought utter devastation to an unassuming young family whose dreams and prospects of a perfect life were terrifyingly shattered. I make no secret of the fact that I have had a life-long interest in supernatural phenomena and during thirty years of open-minded research I have met many interesting and enigmatic people, none more so than the man I have characterised in The Fire House as Markos. He was a spiritualist medium and his 'gift' as he called it was in my opinion truly miraculous. He shared his gift freely with others and he brought lasting peace to countless ordinary folk. It was my good fortune to meet him in 1984 and I suppose it was inevitable that our shared interests would ensure that we soon became firm friends.Markos passed over into the spirit world he so often communicated with seven years ago and his passing left a void in my life that will never be filled. The Fire House is my tiny homage to him and others like him throughout the world who open themselves up to the derision of sceptics and selflessly use their gifts to bring comfort and hope to the hearts and minds of troubled people. The facts behind the ghost story you are about to read proved to me beyond any reasonable doubt that just as there are angels, there are also such things as malevolent spirits and of their evil powers we have no real comprehension.until now.

Download or read book Semantic Antics written by Sol Steinmetz and published by Random House Reference. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My favorite popular word book of the year" -William Safire, NY Times 6/22/2008 A fun, new approach to examining etymology! Many common English words started out with an entirely different meaning than the one we know today. For example: The word adamant came into English around 855 C.E. as a synonym for 'diamond,' very different from today's meaning of the word: "utterly unyielding in attitude or opinion." Before the year 1200, the word silly meant "blessed," and was derived from Old English saelig, meaning "happy." This word went through several incarnations before adopting today's meaning: "stupid or foolish." In Semantic Antics, lexicographer Sol Steinmetz takes readers on an in-depth, fascinating journey to learn how hundreds of words have evolved from their first meaning to the meanings used today.

Download or read book Empire of Mud written by J. D. Dickey and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Washington, DC, gleams with stately columns and neoclassical temples, a pulsing hub of political power and prowess. But for decades it was one of the worst excuses for a capital city the world had ever seen. Before America became a world power in the twentieth century, Washington City was an eyesore at best and a disgrace at worst. Unfilled swamps, filthy canals, and rutted horse trails littered its landscape. Political bosses hired hooligans and thugs to conduct the nation's affairs. Legendary madams entertained clients from all stations of society and politicians of every party. The police served and protected with the aid of bribes and protection money. Beneath pestilential air, the city’s muddy roads led to a stumpy, half-finished obelisk to Washington here, a domeless Capitol Building there. Lining the streets stood boarding houses, tanneries, and slums. Deadly horse races gouged dusty streets, and opposing factions of volunteer firefighters battled one another like violent gangs rather than life-saving heroes. The city’s turbulent history set a precedent for the dishonesty, corruption, and mismanagement that have led generations to look suspiciously on the various sin--both real and imagined--of Washington politicians. Empire of Mud unearths and untangles the roots of our capital’s story and explores how the city was tainted from the outset, nearly stifled from becoming the proud citadel of the republic that George Washington and Pierre L'Enfant envisioned more than two centuries ago.
