FDNY Offical History is the Real Deal,
By Broadway Bookseller (Kentucky) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fire Department City of New York: The Bravest; An Illustrated History 1865-2002 (Hardcover)
This book is a "coffee table" sized history of the FDNY. I was also surprised to learn that it is the offical history as written by a member of the FDNY. It is a must have for any fire collector or people who are interested in the FDNY. It is packked with color photos and a comprehensive text outlining the department's history since 1865. It has a section that I haven't seen anywhere else, individual photos of the firefighters killed on 9-11. Having seen so much about that horrible act, nothing brought home the tragedy like seeing the photos of the brave souls who lost their lives taht day. While there are many books on 9-11 that provide great history such as 102 minutes, FDNY: The bravest fills a gap that no other book does. It provides an insider look the department's photos and account of the event.
The Bravest is fact based, no nonsense history that tells it like it was and has a deep and rich historic perspective that other books cannot deliver. |
