Last Man Down: A New York City Fire Chief and the Collapse of the World Trade Center

Rating:
Summary: Impossible to put down until the end
Review: Written in a no BS honest style this first hand account by Chief Picciotto is absolutely bone -chilling reading. He shares his thoughts and actions throughout the ordeal that he suffered on 9/11 and reminds us once again of how truly heroic these rescue workers and firefighters were. Thank God that good men like the Chief and his associates are out there watching our backs.
For me reading this book refueled the anger and sadness that I felt following the attacks and also increased my appreciation for the horror that the people of NY endured.
God Bless you Chief Picciotto.

Summary: Best Book I Have Ever Read
Review: This book gives incite to what was going through the minds of the highest ranking firefighters as they departed from the station right until the end. A neighbor of mine, I couldn't thank him any more for sharing his joyous story with the world. Thanks Mr. Picciotto!

Summary: One-Man Operation?
Review: I'm surprised that I actually read the whole book. It is several hundred pages of one man boasting about his role on this tragic day. If you want to read a very good book about 9/11, try Report From Ground Zero.

Summary: A Man & A Miracle
Review: I loved this book! I couldn't put it down. This is the first book that I ever finished in a few days. It is a book from one mans point of view, but that is what makes it so great.. Sometimes to take a walk in someones shoes you have to hear it from them..ANd that is What Ricard does in this fine book. HE makes you feel and see what he felt and went through on a day like 9/11. This book is about Richard the Fire Chief and 9/11. But he tells it like it is and how it went down. He had no clue what was going on outside of the tower he was in. He just kept on pushing to help evacuate the north tower when all hell broke loose... I would recommend this book to ever Firefighter.. I loved it.
