Rescue Vehicles

Take a look inside

Sirens blare. Helicopter blades whir. A boat engine revs. When an emergency arises, special vehicles are called to the scene. These machines are spotlighted in the Rescue Vehicles series, which captures all the important and intense action involved when people need help. Straightforward text and colourful photos convey the physical features of each vehicle, as well as the ways in which the personnel who operate the vehicle use the equipment at hand to help people in crisis. A concluding section relates a brief history of the vehicle.
