Description

A memoir of a young woman’s entry into the adrenaline-fueled world of firefighting, this true story chronicles the firestorm of opposition to her gender and competence, as well as the intense struggles she endures towards achieving her ultimate victory. Even with having to endure three years of continued intimidation and abuse, her determination to become a well-respected firefighter only grew. Using the firehouse as a backdrop, this is a universal small-town story about fierce ambition and following one's true calling that will resonate with readers across all divides.
