Introduction
Description
Ladder trucks may relish in all the glory of daring high-rise rescues, but it's their stout cousins, the pumpers, that labor in the trenches to execute the most critical of firefighting functions: moving water from the hydrant to the blaze. In addition to offering an overview of pumper evolution from 1950 to present, the book is bursting with archival imagery and Shapiro's trademark live-action photography capturing trucks built by such past and present manufacturers as American LaFrance, Pierce, Mack, Grumman, FMC, and others.
80 colour and 40 black & white illustrations. Paperback. 128pp
