Out of the Ashes: Atlanta’s Fire Apparatus 1851-2015

Author Bob Gish spent thirty years as an Atlanta Firefighter and loved the rigs

of the fire service. As his time on the job came closer to completion, the thoughts of

this book formulated. After retiring in 2008, Gish researched over 500 groups of apparatus

purchased by the Atlanta Fire Department between 1851 & 2015. Out of the

Ashes tells the story, through historical text, of the founding of Atlanta as a railroad

town in 1837, the development of a fledgling fire brigade in 1848 up to the modern fire

department of today and its fire apparatus that has protected the citizens and visitors

of Atlanta. This book highlights a sample of those rigs with details and photographs.
