Wooden Sticks & Iron Men By Bill Noonan
|
A photographic chronicle of the Boston Fire Department from the mid 1940's through the early 1960's.
"The photos that comprise Wooden Sticks & Iron Men span three decades and capture events that are forever etched in our memories. These photographs present us with eyewitness accounts of bravery, courage and commitment. They recreate remarkable experiences from a bygone era, when equipment, apparatus and personal protective gear were not as advanced as they are today.
"Wooden Sticks & Iron Men is a tribute to a generation of firefighters who set the standards for honor, sacrifice and accomplishment. In these pages the reader will find the reminders of the inherent dangers that these firefighters faced with every tour of duty. Although many changes have occurred over the years, the one constant is the firefighter who has helped make the world a safer and better place for all."
Martin Pierce, Commissioner, Boston Fire Department
