reviewed on + 16 more book reviews


Today`s Firefighters, they risk their lives to protect our dreams.
They operate in a world of screaming sirens and desperate cries for help... of blinding, noxious smoke, torturous heat, and buildings that can implode at any moment. Theirs is the most dangerous job in America, an awe-inspiring campaign of bravery and risk. And in all age of dwindling true-life heroes, firefighters stand guard selflessly in the service of human life. Last American Heroes takes us to the front lines of the urban fire zone to experience first-hand one harrowing month in the lives of the men and women of a Miami Beach firefighting unit.
