Smoke Eaters Trucks, Training and Tools of the Natio par Colby CB
This is one of the books that I borrowed many times from the library when I was a kid. Although dated, it still holds up today as a captivating look into firefighing to inspire young minds.

Space Age Fire Fighters: New Weapons in the… par Carroll B. Colby
I used to take this book out of the library all the time when I was 9 or 10. It was good then, but it really is dated and superficial today. I bought it for sentimental value and not for any scholarship.
