The firefighters responded to every incident during the Troubles, wherever it was located, seeing the best and worst of humanity.The years 1969 to 1994 were particularly difficult for Northern Ireland, and what would become known as 'the Troubles' would test the firefighters of Belfast to their limits. This book provides a record of that time from a firefighter's perspective, combining thorough research and contemporary records with first hand accounts from people who were involved, bringing these significant events to life through the words of the people who lived through them.Full of character and characters, this personal account places on record the dedicated service and invaluable contribution made by firefighters to the people of Belfast when the city needed them most. Firefighters of Belfast is ultimately an uplifting portrait of human courage and resilience during the most difficult of times.

Combines history with insights in to the working life of firefighters who were ordinary working people with extra ordinary courage, determination and that rare Northern Irish humour which helped them through the darkest of times.

The stories in this book are incredible and bring to life the horrors of the troubles in Northern Ireland. The bravery shown by these men in the face of adversity should be remembered.
