| After forty years as a member of FDNY, Phil Burns had some stories to tell,
and he told many of them in his extremely popular first book, Laughter, Tears
& Muffled Drums. In that book Phil Burns demonstrated that he had a
wonderful gift for capturing the moments in his fellow firefighters' lives.
The moments of fear, and then the moments when that
fear is conquered by bravery summoned from some unknown source - every single
day. The moments when the unknown is confronted and becomes experience, and
then the moments when that experience is transformed into leadership. The moments of absolute hilarity that only firefighters
living and working in firehouses understand and appreciate. The moments of
tragedy when a brother firefighter makes the ultimate sacrifice and does not
return to the firehouse. And the moments of immense relief and quiet pride when
you know that you are bringing everybody home. ...bringing everybody
home, Phil
Burns' great new book, is a compelling collection of the moments that are basic
to the profession of firefighting; the moments that make the job truly and
totally unique. Phil Burns makes you feel the pain, the humor, and the joy in
each story he tells. ...bringing
everyday home is
a book of moments you will enjoy again and again.
