Victoria Phaff is facing many problems. Even though it's the new millennium, her concerns are of the age old variety. She is a twenty-three year old Hapa, newly graduated from college, and heart broken. To distract herself and get some distance from a string of failed relationships, she goes to Taiwan to see her great-grandmother, A-zou. While there she unexpectedly finds herself caught in between three generations of Taiwanese women as secrets long suppressed are revealed. As the stories of her great-grandmother, her grandmother, and her mother are unwound, the tenacity and hopes of these women are passed onto the next generation. Vicki draws strength from these tales to grasp happiness for herself.

From Ahrens-Fox rigs with chain drives, open cabs, steering wheels on the right, and firefighters hanging on the back step to the air conditioned crew cabs of today, trucks used by the NFD are recalled by the men who drove them. The turn out gear worn to protect them while crawling through burning buildings is described, as is the evolution of the hose they pulled in with them. If you ever wondered what it was like to drive a rig with mechanical brakes and manual steering to a fire or drag 2 1/2" line up three flights of stairs, this book is for you. Follow the men of the NFD as they move from wooden ladders, rotary or piston positive displacement pumps, and filtered masks to today's modern rigs and positive pressure self contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs).Members of the NFD appointed between 1942 and 1978 remember from the days of iron men and wooden ladders when masks were rarely worn to the present day of PEOSHA regulations and enclosed air conditioned crew cabs. The evolution of rigs, turn-out gear, hose and nozzles, and ladders and tools is discussed, showing the steady progress of the fire service over the last half of the 20th century and into the new millennium. The only thing that hasn't changed through these decades is the dedication of firefighters.

In Riots to Renaissance the story of the Newark Fire Department from that fateful July in 1967 to the experiences of 2003 are recounted. This volume begins with the warning signs that an explosion was about to occur on Newark's streets. The men who fought the fires created by that explosion then describe in detail what they felt and how they dealt with the societal chaos that was Newark in July of 1967. If you have read A View from the Firehouse: The Newark Riots, you are familiar with the fire department history of those troubled nights. The stories told in this book will introduce you to how it felt and what members of the Newark Fire Department did to get through that time.The next chapters follow Newark and her fire department as they spiral downward until the city is nothing but a shell of its former self. It was said that wherever America's cities were going, Newark would get there first. During the 20 years that followed the Riots, it appeared America's cities would simply burn to the ground, but by the late 1980s hope had crept back into the picture. The members of the NFD were fighting fires and saving lives throughout this period when the city was transformed and reborn, some say becoming America's renaissance city. Follow Newark firefighters through the worst period in the history of the city and into an era of hope.

Seventeen year old Huang Fu-Wen has been sent to America to avoid possible arrest in China, bringing with him a secret he must keep to himself or face permanent exile or execution. He takes a train from San Francisco to New Jersey with 51 hostile Chinese men. The Chinese workers do not trust Fu-Wen because he is not from their native province. One of them verbally assaults him. The group's foreman, Charlie Ming, breaks up the argument and questions Fu-Wen about his English speaking ability. Charlie then advises Fu-Wen to go by the name A-Wen and assures him his English abilities will get him a more responsible position at the steam laundry where they will work. Doubts about the wisdom of his father sending him away fill A-wen's mind. Isolated, frustrated, and confused by the situation, A-Wen fights to win the cooperation an Irish boy he works with and the respect of his countrymen without revealing his secret. He must succeed if his is ever to return home safely.

Dennis Carney is a fourteen year old high school freshman who loves baseball. When his mother mentions a vacation that could interfere with his summer baseball camp he responds unenthusiastically, needing the camp to ensure his place on the junior varsity team next year. He wonders if she'll ask his ten year old sister Millie her view. During the discussion, a glass of water slides out of his mother's hand, crashing to the floor. To Dennis and Millie, it looked as if their mother had purposely just let it go. Mom says it's just a broken glass and asks that they not mention it to their father who is at work in the firehouse. Den feels it's more than that, so he secretly texts his dad about what happened. This begins the family's roller coaster ride that comes after a diagnosis of MS.
