Book Description
An unforgettable journey through the daily lives of the brave men and women who have made saving lives their profession.
Dennis Smith, author of Report from Engine Co. 82, traveled across the country talking to dozens of America’s firefighters to put together this powerful collection of their own descriptions of their most dramatic and intense experiences on the job. Their stories, compiled here, are timeless testimonies to the human capacity for heroism and nobility.
Focusing on the most courageous firefighters, from those who have been decorated for heroism to those who have been seriously injured, Firefighters presents the extraordinarily rich and rugged voices of men and women who fight urban building fires, who battle sweeping forest fires, who perform emergency rescues, and who face extreme danger and risk as part of their everyday lives. Sometimes brave, sometimes funny, sometimes bittersweet or filled with anger, these voices combine to make Firefighters both a riveting adventure drama and a moving chronicle of American heroism at its finest.
Customer Reviews:
Very disappointing.......2006-02-11
I had a hard time getting through this book. It is mostly boring and repetitive. The comments and anecdotes by Dennnis Smith are often arrogant and self-serving. I am a retired firefighter from Los Angeles County FD and very much enjoy reading about firefighter experiences and talking with firefighters from other areas and other countries. I have great admiration for volunteers who give to their community with personal sacrifice and often great risk. I am greatly bothered by firefighters, especially professionals, who toot their own horn and think of themselves as great heroes. This book is just not very interesting at best, and at worst is somewhat offensive.
All About Firefighters.......2004-01-31
Do you like the thrill of going into a burning building? The book "Firefighters: Their Lives in Their Own Words", is written by Dennis Smith. Firefighting is not an easy thing to do. This book tells you what they do and how they live.
Firefighters do not live an easy life, despite what American people might think. The book explores firefighting all over the United States. Some of the places are New York City, Boston, San Francisco, and Chicago. Some firefighters go into the bucket of a ladder truck; others are interior. This means that they go into the burning building and put their lives at risk.
I give this book five stars and recommend this book to anyone that loves adventures. It is an easy read with lots of pictures.
Just Could Not Get Into This Book.......2002-06-04
I'm not saying this book is bad, but I just could not get into this book. I thought I'd really enjoy it, but it's all one and two page anecdotes. A lot of them are very repetitive of the other ones. I think if they stuck to only a dozen or so in depth, it would have been more interesting and enjoyable, at least for me that is. But this is just my opinion, the other reviewers all seemed to enjoy it. If you think this book may appeal to you, go ahead and try it. Don't go by my opinion, after all it is only my humble opinion.
A Classic In That Fine Oral Tradition.......2002-04-23
I'm a 27 year-old professional firefighter in a suburb of Detroit. When I was 16 I picked up this book on a whim at the public library and it enveloped me. This book, along with Dennis Smith's classic Report From Engine Co. 82, was the inspiration for me to try to become a fireman. Mr. Smith takes the great anecdotes that every firefighter accumulates and puts them into print just the way they were told, in the fine oral tradition that lives today in every fire hall in the world. Some stories are funny, some sad, some make you wonder why any one anywhere would ever think to take the test.
Whether you're an old brown-shoed leather-lung, or some fresh-faced youngster eyeing this career field for the first time with a furrowed brow, or just someone looking for a book of hair-raising tales from the people who lived it, this book has something in it to give you pause.
Thank you Dennis Smith, from the bottom of my heart. It was you that made all the difference in my life.
In their own words.............2002-03-23
The title really says it all. This book is told by firefighters, but it is not just for firefighters. I would highly recommend this to anyone thinking of joining the fire service.

While there's an abundance of television shows about police officers and more than a few about emergency medical folks, lesser attention is paid to fire fighters and their day-to-day dealings with disaster. But Steve Delsohn has found a wealth of material by interviewing scads of fire fighters across the country, from smoke jumpers flown in to fight forest fires to crews in action-filled urban departments. You learn the humorous lingo of fire fighting, where "putting the wet stuff on the red stuff" is paramount. You'll also relive more than a few gripping, emotional stories--the kind that might make good fodder for a drama series.
Book Description
Real-life firefighters speak with candor about what it's like to live and work in the line of duty. Gathered here are personal stories from men and women on everything from the daily grind and the effects of their work on family to their encounters with the world's most famous fires. They talk about their injuries, about volunteer firefighting, earthquakes, forest fires, urban medical emergencies and arson. No exaggerations, no false heroism, just true day-to-day accounts of courageousness and fear as they grapple with the daily traumas of their profession.
Assembled here are the most poignant of stories: the human face behind the uniform. Hair raising and awe-inspiring but never false or indulgent, The Fire Inside is an accurate portrayal of the highs and lows, the real-life grit of the world's most dangerous profession.

Excellent.......2000-12-21
One of the best books about firefighting by firefighters. Reading the stories of theses heros really brings their job into perspective.
a reader from texas.......2000-08-09
I have wanted to be a firefighter for a long time.When I started to read this book I thought It was good,but when I finished it I thought it was great.The Fire Inside realy inspired me to do the most I could to be a firefighter.I think everyone who whants to be a firefighter should by this book.
The Best!.......2000-02-23
I love this book! I am a volunteer firefighter and I am also going to college full time. I chose to read this book for my book report, and I must say that it has really touched my heart. I know where most of these people are comming from. I hope that everyone who reads this review will get the book and read it. Happy Reading!
What it's like to be "on the job" fighting fire........1998-05-25
Fires and firefighters have fascinated people since the days of the bucket brigade. In this book, Steve Delsohn has taken the time to get behind the scenes, and talk to the men and women who do the backbreaking, dirty work that is firefighting.
This is a closed society, just because no one else can understand what it is we see day in and day out. Among us are the Samaritans wishing only to help others, the adrenaline junkies who groove on the rush you get going in to a burning building, and the guys who just like the days off.
A lot of people try to get on the job, and not many make it. This is your chance to see what it's like, and who the real people are who man (person?) the firestations around this country. After reading it, you'll understand why I'm proud to call all of them my brothers.
Firefighters speak from the heart.......1998-03-04
In The Fire Inside Steve Delsohn got firefighters to candidly speak about their most dangerous job. They tell of the trauma of dealing with the victums of fire, the misery in the strret, but the comaraderie they find with other firefighters. Highly recommended to anyone interest in firefighting.

The supertanker is the image that has come to symbolize America's economic might over the last decade--rock solid and steady. Low inflation, high productivity, and a booming stock market have combined to help create one of the most prosperous periods in American history. But Eamonn Fingleton would argue that this ship is steering the wrong course, and that lurking just below the waterline are some troublesome leaks.
Fingleton argues that American business is sacrificing its once valuable manufacturing base in favor of the new economy, or postindustrialism--an umbrella under which he includes the service, software, information, and entertainment industries, among others. While he writes that he does not seek to dismiss the merits of postindustrialism--although he calls the financial-services industry a "cuckoo in the economy's nest"--Fingleton finds fault with the new economy in three areas: the mix of jobs it produces, its slow income growth, and the fact that postindustrial activities don't export very well. At the same time, he believes that modern manufacturing has become wrongly associated with low-wage or stagnant economies--Japan, in particular, which, he argues, is not the basket case that many believe it to be. At the heart of Fingleton's argument is the idea that postindustrial activities are relatively easy to pursue compared to manufacturing, which requires much more capital and know-how but offers far more upside in the long run. His prescription for revitalizing manufacturing includes boosting savings, directing much of it into industrial investment, and instituting a trade policy designed to allow manufacturing to thrive in the United States.
While Fingleton's dour assessment of the new economy seems overdone, his basic argument about the relative worth of manufacturing is well articulated. In Praise of Hard Industries is a good contrarian read for policymakers, managers, and anyone interested in a different view of both the U.S. and Japanese economies. --Harry C. Edwards
Book Description
When financial journalist Eamonn Fingleton anticipated the meltdown of the New Economy in the late nineties, his predictions were dismissed by mainstream economic writers as “farfetched.” Now, with the New Economy in ruins and America mired in recession, Fingleton’s avowedly contrarian take on mainstream economic thinking is all the more urgent. Written in clear, lucid prose that renders the complexity of the world economy clear to the general reader, Unsustainable is a masterly survey of how the U.S. economy’s turn from manufacturing to a more service-based, “postindustrial” economy—based on finance, entertainment, and computer software—has been an unmitigated disaster for working- and middleclass America and threatens the long-term viability of the U.S. economy. Taking on free market ideologues like Thomas Friedman, Fingelton shows how those who claim that a global service economy is the key to America’s salvation are living in a fool’s paradise. Completely revised and updated, this timely contribution is an indispensable survey of American's economic downturn.

A Gaijin that understands.............2006-07-08
This is a good book following the same premises as earlier works. It amazes me the scorn Eamonn has recieved from naive reviewers who clearly have limited knowledge of Japanese business approaches and government practices, let alone U.S. hard industry facts.......The U.S and Japan economic drivers vary greatly as they measure themselves quite differntly despite the attempts of most so called western experts trying to interpret the strengths of the japanese economy....I suppose these reviewers dont consider the growing japan trade deficit a problem either, which by the way is less than China's..The key US/Japan differences: Government models. Advanced manufacturing and a flexible pro-business government were cornerstones for Americas rise to power and leadership...japan is now more effective in these areas than the U.S with respect to sustaining key industries....No nation has ever lead the world w/o a strong manufacturing base, period...we are clearly in decline in this area, and U.S. politicians, business leaders etc., fool the uneducated mainstraim with explainations like wage issues and outsourcing when the failure or political inability to invest in large capital costs for U.S. factories and retooling are of primary issue, which REMOVES the key high wage jobs from our middle class. Many of our industries are now hollowed out with key outsourcing dependencies forcing much smaller margins than our competitors, and weakening any prior political clout...Dont believe me...ask Westinghouse, or any U.S. LCD firm what percentage of the $20B LCD market they own, and what they expect in the future...afterall, Westinghouse developed LCD technology (answer: close to zero)....Advanced Manufacturing prowress has always been an economic weapon. The lack therof has splintered to become larger issues in the economy, and product development areas, as well as national security vulnerabilities..... Alexander Hamilton would role in his grave if he were alive today. And he would certainly work closely with Eamonn to fix our mess if its not too late already..
Fingleton's track record has held up well.......2006-05-18
The two "negative" reviews of this book are peculiar. This is the paperback version of a hardcover book, published with a different title -- not an uncommon practice in publishing. The complaint of the reviewers is that the contents are the same as the hardcover original! Well, yes, that's the point of a reprint.
More substantively, the author has earned a hearing through his decades-long reporting from Japan and his stubborn, well-documented contrarian outlook. For instance, he shows beyond question that during the long years of Japan's "collapse," its advanced manufacturing sector continued to grow -- in technological sophistication, and in world market share. Judge for yourself after reading, but look past the negative reviews. DISCLOSURE: I am a friend of the author's but am writing because I feel he deserves a hearing.
In Praise of Lefty Big Government Mercantilism .......2005-12-29
Being an engineer in the aerospace industry I was highly interested in this book based on my experiences from the vantage point a "hard industry." I personally believe that it's in our long term interests to maintain a strong manufacturing base because that's the foundation of real wealth, not legal services or newswires. So this book sounded like the perfect source of information to explain our current economic situation, give an assessment of how bad or how good it really is, and suggest ways to improve it. Oh, how very, very wrong I was . . .
This book started off strong, . . . for about four pages. After that a litany of tortured logic, un-sourced assertions, facts taken completely out of context except for the author's subjectively added adjectives, Orwellian double-speak, sleight of hand arguments, flat out ridiculuos statements, contradictory assessments, and even emotional vitriol coalesced not so much into an argument for industry but one for eighteenth century mercantilism with perhaps a sprinkling of far left George Soros on top to serve as an update for the twenty first century.
Even a broken watch is correct twice a day though, so there were some good points in the book which buy it the 2 star rating. These include:
- Manufacturing provides a large source of proprietary knowledge which both improves productivity and serves as a barrier of entry, creating an industry with a large base of high paying jobs, provided it's run right. (A big if.)
- High wage nations can still compete effectively with low wage nations in manufacturing by being capital intensive.
- Americans need to save more and our education system needs to produce more engineers and technically oriented graduates.
- There is some excess in the financial services and managers of publicly traded companies take too short term a view, leading them to sell the company upriver in the long run because of a personal temporary short term gain. (i.e. Enron)
A scholarly, fair, and comprehensive book that focused on the above would be extremely interesting and useful. This is not what you'll get in this book though. Instead you'll get:
A begining section about postindustrialism, things like the internet, information technology, financial services, etc., the things that make the services based economy. In three chapters the author simply sets up straw men by taking the worst examples of post industrial advocates, instead of presenting a comprehensive picture of the post industrial argument. Not being satisfied with this he proceeds to beat the straw men, set them on fire, and piss on the smoldering remains. This is where vitriol even comes out, where he equates the post-industrialists to people incapable of even thinking. If someone has to go to this extreme to make their argument, they probably don't have one. Most telling he leaves the final assessment of the value of the internet to a feminist. To me, this would be like leaving the final assessment of how good a bicycle is to, oh, I don't know, let's say a fish.
A middle section extolls the virtues of manufacturing. This is a bunch of hand picked anectdotal stories and there's no overview of manufacturing in the world or its real impact on economies at large. This is the kind of subject that screams for reams of data, charts of GDP growth over time, pie charts of the breakdown of economies into services, manufacture, agriculture, etc. You will get none of that. There's little value except in reassuring the obvious, high wage nations CAN do manufacturing. Many of these cherry-picked anectdotal examples still don't quite dove-tail with all his claims about manufacturing though! You also know you're being left in the dark with a plethora of CYA disclaimer statments like "while Industry_X has certainly had its share of problems recently . . ." at the begining of a section.
A final section basically amounts to an attack on laissez-faire, free markets, and the concept of free trade. George Soros and a bunch of other lefties, with Pat Buchanan thrown in for "balance", should be listened to instead.
The worst part of this book is the author's lack of an ability to make any sort of coherent argument. Examples of twisted thinking abound:
- A post-industrial "industry" grows five times over in a certain period. The author then goes onto explain how this is not really real growth but something that in reality is bad. Later he proves how great a manufacturing industry is because in the same period it grows a whopping 60%! Self contradictory evaluations of the performance of services vs manufacturing is common and always falls down on the side that the manufacturing industry is far far better than the service industry even when all the standard economic indicators suggest otherwise. The author's challenge to the reader seems to be "who are you going to believe? Me, or your lying eyes?"
- He rips into American post industrial industries as being labor intensive and vulnerable to low wage nations because Americans are no smarter or more creative or more anything than laborers around the world. Later he talks about how great German manufacturing is because Germans are so much more diligent than the rest of the world's workers.
- The only facts he presents - and they are surprisingly thin and overwhelmed by mere assertions - are always modified by his subjective opinion and never put in context. When describing service industries "paltry" $50 million revenues, "only" 60,000 jobs, "disappointing" 24% of revenues from foreign sources is common. But when describing manufacturing "a very high" $6 million revenues, "a good mix" of 1,500 jobs, and similar glowing assessments are inevitable despite the number to follow. A number in and of itself means nothing. The fact the author leaves out any head on, direct comparison between industries is telling.
- Official figures are the ultimate source of information when they agree with what the author believes. When the official figures don't agree with him, he finds some loner who does and then barely explains how this time around the official figures are somehow wrong. When attacking his straw men though, he accuses them of ignoring official figures and quoting some loner.
- Gems of Orwellian double-speak sentences include examples like "Solar is already a fully competitive source of energy in remote areas that do not have grid electricity. (pg. 184)" I.e. it's competitive where there is NO competition! And "Even in Singapore, one of the freest societies in the East, the savings rate was successfully boosted by a system of forced savings . . . (pg. 229)" That's not very free if it's FORCED is it? (His defense of solar is one of the most hilariously pathetic eight pages I've ever read and really is worth the price of the book. He capstones it with the "most encouraging" observation that solar cells have gone from producing one third of the energy used to make them before they wore out - that is consuming more total energy in their manufacture than they eventually make!- to now producing three times as much energy as required to produce them before they wear out. Wow, what an achievement. Any ACTUAL power source converts many thousands of times the energy used to manufacture it before it's internal workings wear out, but whatever . . .)
- Americans are dumb and the only successful American companies basically blundered into monopolies on standards. The American economy, despite the statistics, is in bad shape. The Japanese instead are eight feet tall, can read people's minds and see through lead. The Japanese economy, despite the statistics, is in really great shape. This type of persistently biased characterization makes you question everything he claims, and eliminates any value or truth he might actually have in his arguments. The author basically can't get out of his own way.
- He always attacks opponents of his viewpoint by claiming that they don't put numbers into context, are using twisted logic, making mere assertions instead of quoting facts, etc., apparently oblivious that these are the very same tactics he himself uses!
- He claims Boeing is no longer a good company because 30% of components in a Boeing aircraft are now made abroad vs. 2% in the 1960's. This is actually because foreign manufacturing for those components happens to be better and cheaper. America isn't doing that badly in aerospace by the way. The author fails to mention that 50% of the "European" Airbus is made in America. This is an example of free trade actually distributing production to where it is most efficient.
The list goes on and on to ridiculous proportions. You'd have to buy the book to see them all because there's at least one thing an alert and critical reader can find highly questionable on each page.
All in all, this book was way off the mark and a highly squandered opportunity. It's really a mercantilist argument, and the only common thread that I could see in all the author's cloudy reasoning is that nation's should do everything in their power to export more than they import no matter what. It's NOT, unfortunately, a book about how to revitalize American manufacturing in a globalized world.
This book is a fraud!.......2005-12-07
This book is nothing but a slightly updated re issue of "In Praise of Hard Industries" with an Introduction issued as a paperback. The publishers page even states right at the top quote: "Previously published as In Praise of Hard Industries in 1989 by Houghton Mifflin".
You might want to read this if you haven't read the original, but I find it very deceptive indeed to re issue it with a different name hoping to entice readers of the previous book into thinking they are going to get something other than a few cosmetic changes here and there!
Fingleton is right on target.......2004-12-01
I've lived in Japan for over 5 years and worked in both the manufacturing and sales/marketing side for a technology company. I also speak and read Japanese. I know this culture - particularly the aspect that Japanese are both proud of and recognize as vital to prosperity - manufacturing, or, to include the craft trades, "thing making".
Reading "In Praise of Hard Industries" had me cheering, out loud sometimes. This guy hits it right on the head on every single aspect and effortlessly argues away the myths that Americans like to cling to as the economy falls into ruin - the viability of America's "service economy", superior American creativity, American wealth - all illusions that persist because Americans aren't educated enough or in the right way to be able to see the flimsiness of the financial channel commentators' arguments.
Were's so far out of the game in manufacturing technology - both in terms of skill and mindset - that I don't know if we can ever get back in. Throw on top of that the skills in market resesarch and product marketing and sales and the prospects look even worse. Japanese companies have honed all these razor sharp and are super competetive. And our measures would certainly be complicated by the fact that the strong penetration of Japanese companies into our country as *employers* brings them strong political influence within our own borders. It's the Trojan Horse! But whatever the measures, we have to start with an honest discussion of the facts - a look in the mirror, a wakeup call. This book, along with Fingleton's others and his website, are just that.

An Inconvenient Truth
ASIN: 0262511924 |
Book Description
A series of food-related crises--most notably mad cow disease in Britain, farmer protests in France against American hormone-treated beef, and the European Union's banning of genetically modified food--has turned the regulation of food safety in Europe into a crucible for issues of institutional trust, legitimacy, and effectiveness. What's the Beef? examines European food safety regulation at the national, European, and international levels as a case of "contested governance"--a syndrome of policymaking and political dispute in which not only policy outcomes but also the fundamental legitimacy of existing institutional arrangements are challenged.
The discussions of European food safety regulation in What's the Beef? open into consideration of broader issues, including the growing importance of multilevel regulation (and the possibility of disagreements among different levels of authority), the future of European integration, discontent over trade globalization, the politicization of risk assessment and regulatory science, the regulation of biotechnology, the shifting balance between public and private regulation, agricultural protectionism, and the "transatlantic divide." After addressing the historical, social, and economic context of European food safety regulation, the book examines national efforts at food safety reform in France, Britain, and Germany and such regional efforts as the creation of the European Food Authority. The book also looks at the international dimensions of European food safety regulation, discussing the conflicts between EU safety rules and World Trade Organization rulings that occur because EU rules are more risk averse ("precautionary") than those of its trading partners, including the United States.
