Book Reviews of The Last Men Out: Life on the Edge at Rescue 2 Firehouse
Book Review: A must read for firefighters
Summary: 5 Stars
Tom Downey has written an honest and true account of life in a New York City firehouse. With a keen eye and great observational skills Downey has documented a world that most people will never enter or understand. He brings to life the men and their experiences working in the busiest rescue company in the city. Not since Dennis Smith's 1972 book "Report from Engine Company 82" has an author captured the true essence of the firefighters world. This book is a must read for anyone interested in the FDNY. These men are a throwback to the war years of the late 1960's and early 1970's - a quickly vanishing breed.
