Title: "Working Fire" by Zac Unger
Review: An outstanding autobiographical novel by a real, contemporary Oakland, California Firefighter/Paramedic. Unger is a gifted writer telling his personal story of the travails of becoming a fireman with humor and unusual insight into the human side of those who fight urban fires and respond to an amazing variety of grisly emergencies. Unger is an unusual character to be found in his chosen profession. He is highly educated, and hails from a well to do Jewish family in Berkeley. His is the antithesis of the resume' expected from a big city fireman. The reader takes from this reading experience an extensive knowledge of the tasks, challenges and terminology of the firefighters' world. Zac proovides an insiders' look at the psychological makeup of a broad range of people working in the field. Outstanding, and a quick, fun read. Hopefully, we will see more from Zac Unger.AK LorenzAlameda, CA
