Description: So Others Might Live by Terry Golway Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description From the original 18th-century volunteer force to the New York Firefighter unit in the Union Army, to contemporary issues of diversity and efficiency, this history holds up a mirror for fire-fighters throughout the US. It is the story of the men and women, tragedies and triumphs of the FDNY throughout its history. Publisher Description In the first history of the New York Fire Department- FDNY- in over sixty years, journalist Terry Golway weaves together stories of heroic firefighters and extraordinary fires to create a moving and original account of New York as seen through the eyes and actions of the citys firefighters. From the eighteenth centurys most ambitious public-works project- the building of aqueducts from upstate to help control fires- to firefighter-turned-politician Boss Tweeds backroom politics, fire and firefighters have played an integral part in the life of New York. So Others Might Live also offers a new view of the building of modern urban America and the social turbulence of New York from the 1700s to the present day.
