{"product_id":"orlando-firefighting-ginger-bryant-9780738553078","title":"Orlando Firefighting","description":"Mystery surrounds the origins of Orlando's name, but the most probable explanation for its moniker dates back to the exploits of Orlando Reeves. While guarding Central Florida forts against Native American attacks, Reeves was alarmed in the middle of the night. A log rolled toward Reeves in the darkness, and he knew it disguised movement by an opponent. After firing his gun to awaken his fellow soldiers, he was bombarded by arrows, which resulted in his death. Orlando's name was bestowed upon a local post office in 1857 and then on the city incorporated in 1875. Just like the brave solider for whom the city was named, firefighters of Orlando boldly risk their lives for the welfare of others. This volume commemorates those men and women and traces a rich history from 1883, when a devastating fire inspired William C. Sherman to start a volunteer fire company, to today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ginger Bryant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738553077\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738553078\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/09\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.18h x 6.60w x 0.34d","brand":"Ginger Bryant","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059579678975,"sku":"9780738553078","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ba0b9a96-a58d-42ef-bec5-cde399d8b20d.jpg?v=1685059083","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/orlando-firefighting-ginger-bryant-9780738553078","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
