Hardback. Zustand: Good. Informative and intriguing.--Kirkus ReviewsDo you know why dalmatians were a necessity in nineteenth-century firehouses? Have you ever heard of a thermal imaging camera or a quint truck? Do you know how fire trucks can override traffic signals? Did you realize that firefighters do more than fight fires?Filled with vivid explanations and detailed illustrations of firefighters in action and the equipment used in any given situation-from extinguishers to the Jaws of Life, from sirens to outriggers--this book is an excellent introduction to the courageous, intense, and heroic profession of firefighting.Whether your child is an aspiring firefighter or just likes the way fire trucks look and sound, here is a wonderful way to learn more about these admirable rescue workers who touch our lives no matter who we are or where we live.Award-winning author Dori Hillestad Butler was inspired to write this book because of her sons' fascination with firefighting when they were little and because of her father-in-law, who is a retired fire marshal.Butler began her career writing for magazines. She has been a ghostwriter for the Sweet Valley Twins and the Boxcar Children series, and she is the author of My Mom's Having a Baby, Sliding into Home, Do You Know the Monkey Man, and the Tank Talbott books. She lives in Coralville, Iowa, with her husband, two sons, a dog, and a cat.Illustrator Joan C.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. An exploration of the visual corollary to Didion?s life and work and the feeling that each generates in her admirers, detractors and critics?including artists from Helen Lundeberg to Diane Arbus, Betye Saar to Maren Hassinger, Vija Celmins and Andy Warhol Published with Hammer Museum. In Joan Didion: What She Means, the writer and curator Hilton Als creates a mosaic that explores Didion's life and work and the feeling each generates in her admirers, detractors and critics. Arranged chronologically, the book highlights Didion's fascination with the two coasts that made her. As a Westerner transplanted to New York, Didion was able to look at her native land, its mores and fixed rules of behavior, with the loving and critical eyes of a daughter who got out and went back. (Didion and her late husband moved from New York to Los Angeles in 1964, where they worked as highly successful screenwriters, producing scripts for 1971's The Panic in Needle Park and 1976's A Star Is Born, among other works, before returning to New York 20 years later.) And from her New York perch, Didion was able to observe the political scene more closely, writing trenchant pieces about Clinton, El Salvador and most searingly the Central Park Five. The book includes more than 50 artists ranging from Brice Marden and Ed Ruscha to Betye Saar, Vija Clemins and many others, with works in all mediums including painting, ephemera, photography, sculpture, video and film. Also included are three previously uncollected texts by Didion: ?In Praise of Unhung Wreaths and Love? (1969); a much-excerpted 1975 commencement address at UC Riverside; and ?The Year of Hoping for Stage Magic? (2007).…
