London Blitz: A Fireman's Tale: Then and Now

Prior to September 1939, the author had been fighting fires in the East End of London for fourteen years. On the outbreak of war he became one of the nucleus of professional firement preparing men of the Auxiliary Fire Service for the maelstrom of the Blitz. This work presents the true story of ordinary men and women in extraordinary circumstances who, with fortitude and great courage, became very far from ordinary. 144 photographs
