The engine room of a ship bursts into flames. Black smoke billows into the air. The fire begins to spread, snaking through the belly of the boat. A fire alarm sounds, and specially trained marine firefighters aboard the ship grab their gear and rush to the scene. They work fast to contain and extinguish the fire before any serious harm is done. Dramatic, true stories will keep readers turning the pages as they learn first-hand how these tough, brave firefighters use their strength, quick thinking, and expert skills to battle deadly blazes. In addition, readers will go behind the scenes to learn how marine firefighters train for their job so that they are ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice.
