Editorial Review: Product Description: Ride with the fire department paramedics as they race to help people who are having a really bad day, and share the laughs and the tears that come with having "the world's most glamorous job." "Quick! How Do You Dial 9-1-1?" contains episodes that are both harrowing and hilarious from the true-life experiences of Firefighter Captain Randy Nickerson of the Denton, Texas, Fire Department.

Captain Nickerson is definitely the guy I'd want to respond to my 9-1-1 call. Rating: - So You Wanna Be a Fireman?In the wake of the events of Sept. 11, our nation's true heroes have received the respect and praise they deserve on a daily basis. With this newfound glitz and glamour, I am sure that the career choice of many is to be a fireman, paramedic, or police officer. Randy Nickerson's new book tells stories of what these people do and face on a typical day at the office. He uses true stories with a touch of humor to tell what he has experienced in his 23 years of service. The thing that distinguishes ... Read More
