This text describes the history of man's age-old battle to control the ravages of fire. The development of fire-fighting equipment up to today's sophisticated jet-powered pumps is traced in detail, including the primitive hoses of the ancient Greeks and Romans and the enthusiastic engineering of the 19th century.
