The stories contained in this book run the gamut of human emotions. I hate to say it but -"you'll laugh, you'll cry!"Truly memorable accounts of what it's like to be a firefighter in a big city. Lieutenant Kenney takes you right along for the ride as he pulls up to fires, shootings, etc. I couldn't put it down!His writing style is very unique and lends itself very well to the "firefighter's world" which he allows us to visit.I highly recommend this book!
