Product Description

This definitive encyclopedia of fire engines from all over the world charts their history from Roman Times to the super-advanced fire fighting machines that we rely on today.


About the Author

Neil Wallington became a professional fire fighter in 1963. His career with the fire service spans almost 30 years, 16 of which were spent with the London Fire Brigade. During this time he was awarded the Queen's Commendation for Brave Conduct for his actions at a serious London Hotel fire when fire fighters were buried in a sudden building collapse. Neil was elected International President of the Institution of Fire Engineers in 1989-90, and has served on the Secretary of State's Fire Service Advisory Council. Since retiring from the uniformed service he has written ten books on different aspects of the fire service and fire fighting as well as contributing to international fire journals and conferences.
