About this product
Product Information
The history surrounding the growth of Vancouver from a wilderness lumber port into one of the largest, most successful international shipping centers in the world is a varied and exciting one. But often overlooked in these stories is the role that the Vancouver Fire Department played. Following the great fire of 1886 that destroyed much of this emerging city, Captain John Carlisle set standards of physical fitness, conduct, and proficiency that today are the hallmark of this great fire department. Employing and developing the most modern and effective firefighting equipment to be found anywhere in the western world, fire chiefs and civic leaders from around the globe came to Vancouver to stand in awe of this fire department's magnificent capabilities. Harbour Burning celebrates the performance and dedication of the people and equipment that have long protected this waterfront. Read about events and disasters that shaped the downtown Vancouver waterfront and False Creek, such as the Pier D fire, the Second Narrows Bridge collapse, the Greenhill Park explosion, and the fire at the Alberta Wheat Pool. Filled with fascinating stories and historical pictures, this is a most interesting read.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.
