Turnout: A Firefighter's Story

Rating:
Summary: Ride the back step of RESCUE 1 of ever busy Baltimore City
Review: Pull your helmut strap tight and hold on for your life as RESCUE 1 tears through the streets of Baltimore in a mad dash to save lives. This account of actual responces of RESCUE 1, will give you a feel for what the fireman of Baltimore City face on each tour of duty. Bill Hall spins a yarn in this exciting and very realistic narrative. It has many fireground and rescue scene stories that are written in a way to peak the interest of all-- from the fire buff to the veteren smoke eater. However, this is not your typical fire department book telling one fire story after another until they all run together in the readers mind. Writing such as this robs these accounts of their excitment and adrenaline. And that just aint Bill Halls style. "Turnout" instead chooses to highlight the "unusual" runs that fireman face everyday. Some are funny, some are downright sad, but thay are all extremely interesting and all are true.
