Summary:
"Each year thousands of forest fires threaten homes, natural resources, and public safety in Canada and around the world. And each year thousands of courageous men and women fight to protect the communities threatened by these fires. Full of glorious color images and enriched by insightful firsthand accounts, Coming Through Fire puts the reader on the fireline with these brave men and women -- right in the heat of battle. Written and photographed by two experienced firefighters, this book authentically captures the wildland firefighting experience." -- goodreads.com
