It is the love of adventure, the intrigue of a fireman's life, the spirit of patriotism and heroism. These things make a timely tale special, but it is the passion of the story told through years of experience. It is this and many other beloved memories of my father 'The Fireman" that are the heart and sole of this book. www.rcbsevenbells@yahoo.com 'Your descriptions were perfect, I could actually feel the flames. It took me back and enabled me to visualize a bygone era." -Sal Moglen Hon. Battalion Chief Fire Department City of New York
