Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Most firefighter memoirs are painfully idealized and should come equipped with a bag-pipe soundtrack. If that's the kind of book you're looking for, my advice is to move on because B-Shifter will most likely disappoint you. The first 3 chapters of B-Shifter are about family. Brunacini devotes… the first chapter of the book to chronicling his father's (Alan Brunacini) 48-year career with the Phoenix, AZ Fire Department. Alan is world renown as one of the fathers of the modern fire service and a pioneer for firefighter safety. Nick connects his father's zeal for improved firefighting safety procedures by vividly describing a diner fire where his father died for a few minutes. The next two chapters are devoted to Nick and his brother and sister growing up in a family where the only logical end was joining the fire service fraternity. Nick makes the observation that fire departments more closely resemble cults (or severely dysfunctional families) than a regular workforce. The reader is brought into the closed world of fire station life and the wide range of personalities that a fire station houses. Firefighters describe B-Shifter's portrayal of the workforce as 'dead on'. The remaining 10 chapters of B-Shifter give the reader a 'ride along' on a collection of the most exciting, twisted, heart breaking and adrenaline filled calls over a 25-year period in the city of Phoenix. Whether it's pulling an attack line up a rapidly vaporizing staircase, a airplane crash into the center of a family's Memorial Day backyard picnic or standing by the side of a slime filled pool frantically trying to rescue a pair of young brothers, the reader is immersed in the firefighter's world. B-Shifter is as much about how firefighters perform, handle and decompress from responding to life and death situations. The Phoenix Fire Department was long held to be the cutting edge fire department by most of the world's fire service. B-Shifter shows the world that the PFD is as human as any other department. Despite the graphic nature of the book most readers describe it as absolutely hilarious.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Staring into the Sun' is a firefighter's memoir. You'll shudder with joy (and revulsion) while reading this fiercely honest and humorous romp with career firefighter Nick Brunacini, who vividly chronicles his 30-year fire-service career in the sun-baked city of Phoenix. Brunacini describes h…is municipal playground and its inhabitants with the aching tenderness and bitter repugnance usually reserved for long-lost lovers. 'Staring into the Sun' offers readers a far-too-brief glimpse into the gritty, fun-loving and often sweet-natured soul of a true American Firefighter.
