We Can See It From the Bridge, by Dave Houseal, Paperback, 240 pgs
|
Dave worked in almost every firehouse, every platoon and almost every company of the Harrisburg Fire Department during his almost 30 year career.Like his father and grandfather, Dave has some great stories to tell. Compelling and funny tales that demonstrate his deep appreciation of the traditions of the American fire service. Dave is proud to be a firefighter and that pride is in every page of We Can See It From the Bridge.
Dave Houseal's grandfather worked his way up through the ranks to become Fire Chief of the Harrisburg Fire Department. His father was an officer of the neighboring Progress Fire Company for many years and Fire Chief of the department for over a decade. Harrisburg is not a huge city. It is not New York or Boston, Philly or Baltimore. But it is a good-sized city, and being the capital of Pennsylvania means its population nearly triples each and every day. And Harrisburg is an old city -- abandoned factories, decaying warehouses, hundreds of crumbling and vacant row-houses, high-rise fires, church fires, arson and riots. And let's not forget reduced manpower and antiquated equipment thanks to the slash and burn budget policies of successive political hacks. Paperback, 240 pgs.
