Books about Firefighters

There are two types of books that describe firefighting: the first type involves a secondary description and is often written by someone who has never done the job, and the second group is written by those who have lived the life and been firefighters themselves. Like going to war, there is something about the experience that can’t be replicated, no matter how well it is transcribed and written about. Firefighting experience is as much about the emotional presence in the fire and response as it is about the technical side. So, if you ever wanted to understand the true perspective of a firefighter, Thought Torpedo novels can get you there. Sure, there are lots of Hollywood version stories and movies on the topic, but that’s not the same as a book written by someone who stood on a flaming roof, carried a fog nozzle on full spray in a hot inferno, or bringing someone back after a hellacious CPR session that seemed to go on forever.
