"On January 22, 2013, fire trucks raced through the icy streets of Chicago. Nearly 200 city firefighters were called to battle a giant warehouse blaze that was in danger of spreading to other buildings. The firefighters had to deal not only with deadly smoke and flames but with freezing temperatures, too. Look inside to find out more about these courageous firefighters and how they use their quick thinking and expert skills to battle fires in houses, apartments, and even vehicles. You'll also go behind the scenes to learn how city firefighters train for their jobs so that they are ready to spring into action at a moment's notice"--Back cover.
