"Detroit Fire Department" by David Traiforos and Arn Nowicki

Once known as the Paris of the West, Motown became synonymous with urban abandonment and arson as job and population decline took hold in the late 20th century. No other fire department has experienced the hardships of the job on such a consistent basis as the Detroit Fire Department (DFD). Detroit firefighters have ridden the waves of unprecedented prosperity and tragic decline. Determined faces mask many layoffs, station closings, and a reduction in workforce. Despite these perils, dedication and the belief in their city remains a constant among Detroit firefighters. The official Detroit motto, We hope for better things; it shall rise from the ashes holds as true today as it did when first uttered over 100 years ago.
