Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Los Angeles City Fire Department Photo Archive (Photo Archives) (Paperback)
An excellent photographic history of fire apparatus that served The Los Angeles City Fire Department from 1953 to 1999.Chuck Madderom has done a great job in photographing some of LA City's most memorable pieces of equipment. The photos are clear and the captions concise. It would be a great addition to any fire buff's bookshelf. Especially those with a sincere interest in fire apparatus from the City of Angels.
