description: “Somebody call the fire department!” What if your fireworks stash causes a major explosion? What if there is a snake under the hood of your car? What if 400-pound Aunt Bertha gets a piece of candy stuck in her throat? You should call the fire department, of course. In Tailboards and Tight Boots, Andy Smith, a nineteen-year fire department veteran, shares stories about the everyday tragedies and triumphs in his life. The storytelling is straightforward and down-to-earth, laced with humor, exposing real feelings and emotions. The stories give the reader insight into a journey through life marked by the growing pains of youth, the trials involved with coming of age, and, most of all, the satisfaction of finding your own way.
