9/15/24 "The Last Men Out" (NYC firefighters)

From 2005 - Tom Downey, author of "The Last Men Out: Life on the Edge at Rescue 2 Firehouse." The book is an extraordinary portrait of NYC firefighters and the culture of this particular firehouse. Downey was in the midst of studying them and their story when the unthinkable events of 9-11 occurred. This book includes a riveting account of what happened on that nightmarish day - and the profoundly moving story of what followed for those who survived 9-11.
