Author Information

"An internationally known fire apparatus historian, Walter M.P. McCall has written 22 automotive history books--12 of them on fire apparatus. His two encyclopedias on the subject are considered the ""bible"" of the field. He has also written numerous articles and features for national and regional fire apparatus and emergency vehicle hobby publications. He lives in Windsor, Ontario. Growing up a short distance from the Toronto Fire Department's Yorkville Avenue station made Alan M. Craig an early fan of the American-LaFrance 700 Series and launched a half century of fire apparatus photography and his 35-year career in emergency services. As a fire service historian, he has spent four decades documenting not only American-LaFrance but also the Toronto Fire Department's motorized fire apparatus, and the Department's Fire Alarm Telegraph system. He lives in Palm Springs, California."
