Firehouse

Autor David Halberstam
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2003
Now in paperback, this New York Times best-seller by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and best-selling author David Halberstam offers an intimate portrait of Engine 40 Ladder 35 on the Upper West Side of New York City, which lost twelve men in the World Trade Center attack. In the tradition of John Hersey's Hiroshima, Halberstam tells a story about the individuals themselves, as well as the effect this cataclysmic event has had on the victims' families, their surviving colleagues and their community. This is journalism-as-history at its best.
