About this podcast

Step into the world of fire-fighting with John Kenlon, who became a New York City firefighter in 1887 and rose to the rank of Fire Chief by 1911.

The first section delves into the advancements in fire-fighting techniques across different countries, the progression of equipment, and the organization of fire services, alongside dramatic accounts of notable historical fires. The latter part focuses on the specific challenges faced by urban fire departments in 1913, addressing various types of fires such as those in hotels, theaters, factories, hospitals, and skyscrapers. Kenlon advocates for essential improvements like high-pressure water systems, sprinkler installations, modern apparatus, and comprehensive training for firefighters, while also acknowledging the vital roles of underwriters and salvage corps. - Summary by Maria Kasper
