Book Synopsis Bridgeport Firefighters by : Bridgeport Firefighters Historical Society
Download or read book Bridgeport Firefighters written by Bridgeport Firefighters Historical Society and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing its roots to 1796, the Bridgeport Fire Department protects Connecticut's largest city. Bridgeport's first step toward independence occured when the Corporation of Newfield was formed in 1797 for the express purpose of forming a fire company. Through the years, the firefighters have continued to play a significant role in Bridgeport's history. Bridgeport's fire department has grown, changed, and shared in its city's triumphs, and tragedies. The purchase of the steam-powered D.H. Sterling fire engine triggered an oftentimes bitter contest between adherents of the traditional muscle-powered fire engine and new mechanical machines. The contest resulted in the formation of the present career fire department in 1872. Bridgeport Firefighters traces the innovations, incidents, and personalities through the hand-drawn, horse-drawn, and motor-driven eras up to the twentieth century.

Download or read book Fire Lover written by Joseph Wambaugh and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hunt forthe most prolific American arsonist of the twentieth century—in this Edgar Award–winning true crime story that’s “stranger than fiction” (The New York Times). From Joseph Wambaugh, the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of such classics as The Onion Field and The Choirboys, comes the extraordinary story of the chase for the “Pillow Pyro,” led by one ambitious firefighter. Growing up in Los Angeles, John Orr idolized law enforcement. However, after being rejected by both the LAPD and LAFD, he settled for a position with the Glendale Fire Department. There, he rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a fire captain and one of Southern California’s best-known and most respected arson investigators. But Orr led another, unseen life, one that included womanizing and an insatiable thirst for recognition. While Orr busted a slew of petty arsonists, there was one serial criminal he could not track down. Nothing was safe from the so-called Pillow Pyro’s obsession. Homes, retail stores, and fields of dry brush all went up in flames. His handiwork led to millions of dollars worth of property damage and the deaths of four innocent bystanders. But after years of evading the police, he made a mistake—one that would turn Orr’s life upside down. The Washington Post raves, “When [Joseph Wambaugh] talks about the culture of cops versus the culture of firemen, we get no speculation, only hard-earned details.” Based on meticulous research, interviews, case records, and thousands of pages of court transcripts, Fire Lover is Wambaugh at his best.

Book Synopsis Trust Your Dog by : Joan Plummer Russell
Download or read book Trust Your Dog written by Joan Plummer Russell and published by Lindholm Press. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Partnerships between men and dogs are legendary, and the stories told in this book feature all the best qualities of such partnerships: loyalty, heroism, sacrifice, bravery, heartbreak, humor, and more. Again and again, K-9s demonstrate their unique value to their human partners--with their physical speed, ferocity, obedience, and ability to track and discern numerous scents. The anecdotes reflect everything from the nerve-wracking danger of a SWAT mission to the playful pranks of handlers during training sessions. Perhaps most dramatic and poignant are stories from officers who were injured in the line of duty--and the incredible courage and support their dogs demonstrated while staying by their side. For over ten years, Joan Russell traveled the United States to meet with, talk to, and observe the men and women whose experiences she collected in this book. The result is an amazing compendium of tales that anyone interested in law enforcement or in working dogs will find hard to put down.
