Requests:  0 Summary:  California's female chief of fire protection looks back at her pioneering path in a male-dominated field, taking readers inside station houses, on daily calls, and along on wildfire campaigns. "When Clare Frank was seventeen, she became a firefighter in Northern California. Very soon, she knew she had found her calling. Burnt is Clare's inspiring account of a life in fire. It chronicles the transformation of a young adult into a scarred and sensitive veteran, grappling with the weight of her duties as chief of fire protection while record-setting fires engulf her home state. Clare masterfully mixes irreverence and awe, taking readers inside station houses, on daily calls, and along on wildfire campaigns where antics and dark humor balance terrifying risk, trauma, and a sense of almost holy responsibility"--Back cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kihei Public Library Large Type 363.37092 Frank Fr Checked In Add Copy to MyList Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT 363.37092 FRANK FR Checked In Add Copy to MyList
