Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the companies that built motor fire apparatus in America in the 20th century, none has acquired the cult-like devotion accorded the unique products of the Ahrens-Fox Fire Engine Company of Cincinnati, Ohio. With its front-mounted piston pump surmounted by a gleaming spherical air chamber, the Ahrens-Fox piston pumper projects irresistible aesthetic and mechanical appeal. Fire apparatus aficionados and collectors have all but elevated the truly distinctive Ahrens-Fox piston pumper to a firefighting deity. Noted fire apparatus historian and author Walt McCall has selected the best of the best for this photographic tribute to a legendary nameplate—including the milestone Continental, mighty six-piston Models PS, BT and what is arguably the most beautiful fire engine ever made in America, the classic, semi-streamlined Model HT. A supplemental gallery of 30 color photos showcases some of the finest surviving Ahrens-Foxes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delicious red paint and sparkling gold leaf on swoopy fenders, leather helmets and barking Dalmatians, screaming sirens and high-speed dashes to roaring flames-the business of firefighting is steeped in high adventure, danger, and heroism. Firefighters and their trucks and engines are rugged, ready, and dependable. All they do, around the clock, 365 days a year, is help people, and for this they hold a special place in our society. These vehicles and the men and women who use them in the never-ending battle to control civilization's oldest enemy are our last pure heroes, America 's heroes on wheels. All the legendary names of yesterday and today-Ahrens-Fox, American LaFrance, Emergency One, Mack, Pirsch, Seagrave, Van Pelt-speed off the pages, sirens screaming in more than 150 stunning color photographs. Also included are vintage advertisements and dozens of original black-and-white photographs. The text is a fascinating history of fire apparatus and firefighting, describing the evolution from bucket brigades and hand­ pumpers manned by rowdy "vollies" to horse-drawn steam pumpers operated by the first professional firefighters, and from the first automotive powered rigs to the powerful, sophisticated trucks, engines, and rescue rigs of today. Woven together for the first time are histories of the great fire-apparatus manufacturers, highlights from historical sources, and hours of interviews with present and former firefighters and fire-apparatus collectors, mustering the legend and lore of hundreds of years of firefighting.
