Running Hot

Beschreibung

Firefighting can be many things. Dangerous, rewarding, deadly, funny, and heart wrenching are just some of the things firefighting is. Day in and day out, men and women pull on their gear and roll out into the unknown. Just when a firefighter says, "I've seen it all", something new will come along to shake that belief. In Running Hot, firefighters tell their own tales, in their own words. The dangerous, rewarding, and the funny. You never know what's coming next. From the agony of watching someone take their last breath, to the fire that finally claims a firefighters life. The firefighters who have shared their stories have opened their hearts and souls for everyone to see. Running Hot is a real look into the lives of firefighters told in a way anyone can appreciate and enjoy. Short stories that get to the heart of firefighting. These tales will leave you heart sick, curious, or flat out laughing. Jump into the thick of things and roll out to every type of emergency imaginable as Americas heroes hit the streets, running hot to an emergency near you.
