Customer Reviews

" I read this book over the Thanksgiving holiday and boy, did I learn something about the public safety workers. It is funny how they want more and more but are not willing to give back to the community. It appears that they are riding on the 9/11 shirt-tales. How can anyone be so selfish? Chief Daugherty did a nice job explaining the various situations and is well written. I would recommend this book to all of my friends, especially those in public service. "

" This book lays bare the hardball political and good ol' boy culture that still exists in fire departments across America today. That ego-based culture of politicians and union leaders has screwed-up more fire departments and ruined more fire officer's careers than on-the-job injuries. Thank you Kelly for sharing your personal experiences and inner most thoughts on a travesty of justice. Your experience is one that many other chiefs can relate to, as they have either been through it, are currently in it, or might someday experience it. Riding on ""big red"" was a lot more fun than wearing gold bugles. Kudos! "
