3000 Degrees The True Story of a Deadly Fire and the Men Who Fought It

Live Like Brothers. Fight Like Heroes. And Don't Leave Anyone Behind.... On December 3, 1999, they answered the call-just as they always did. But for the firemen of the industrial city of Worcester, Massachusetts, who daily endured long shifts, faced moments of heart-stopping crisis, and struggled to be the best fathers, husbands, and men they could be, this day would be different. A blaze started by two vagrants in an abandoned, windowless warehouse was about to plunge experienced firefighters into a maze of disorienting darkness, searing steam, and suffocating smoke. One by one, good men were lost. One by one, other men went after them. Because in the perfect fire-and perfect hell-that was the job... A classic narrative based on the award-winning Esquire magazine article, 3000 Degrees is a true story about American families and the heroism of ordinary men who had the courage to live and die for each other.Flynn, Sean is the author of '3000 Degrees The True Story of a Deadly Fire and the Men Who Fought It' with ISBN 9780446690959 and ISBN 0446690953.
