Book Description
Hahn was a medium size manufacturer of durable, reliable fire apparatus. Similar to Crown fire apparatus but with an East Coast focus. Unlike many other smaller manufacturers, Hahn produced its own custom chassis as well as building on other manufacturers chassis. Its chassis was also used by other small truck manufacturers. Hahn made a variety of apparatus, from tractor-drawn ladder trucks, to rear mounted aerials. Hahn's designs were very unique and identifiable. Very little has been published on Hahn in the past. This book uses previously unpublished photographs, many factory delivery shots, to document the story of Hahn from its inception to its demise.

As Loudoun County experiences incredible growth, volunteers from the community work side-by-side with career personnel to ensure that citizens are well protected. The images in this volume capture the history of Loudouns fire and rescue apparatus, from the earliest trucks to todays modern fire and rescue vehicles. The photographs depict a time when departments struggled to raise funds and provide protection to their communities.

Book Description
This journal, written by John Owens CEO of Professional Testing Corp., explores what fire has meant to man and the means to control or extinguish. While fire has been essential to the development of civilization, it also has been known to be a villain. The Journal focuses on that latter tendency, highlighting the stages of firefighting and the development of fire departments—starting with volunteers and eventually to paid firefighters. This journal reveals how fire equipment was first developed to present day with current manufacturers. These improvements came with much trial and error, including many failures. This journal contains general information on design features and situations that can overwhelm firefighters with some of the best and current equipment presently manufactured. The journal includes an introduction to maintenance (in-house and third-party inspection) of fire apparatus, including ground ladders. Trivia questions and answers, for various situations, represent operation procedures, equipment failure and maintenance problems. The Q’s and A’s, will help eliminate problems in the future. Discover the fascinating history of firefighting, fire equipment, and fire prevention methods from hundreds of years ago up through today with this journal.

Book Description
Rooted in traditional Japanese aesthetics and meditations on contemporary neuroscience, a stunning new volume from an essential American poet. Acclaimed as "one of the most fascinating female poets of our time" (BOMB), Kimiko Hahn is a shape-shifter, a poet who seeks novel forms for her utterly original subject matter and "stands as a welcome voice of experimentation and passion" (Bloomsbury Review). In Brain Fever, Hahn integrates the recent findings of science, ancient Japanese aesthetics, and observations from her life as a woman, wife, mother, daughter, and artist. Rooted in meditations on contemporary neuroscience, Brain Fever takes as its subject the mysteries of the human mind—the nature of dreams and memories, the possibly illusory nature of linear time, the complexity of conveying love to a child. In one poem, "A Bowl of Spaghetti," she cites a comparison that researchers draw between unraveling "the millions of miles of wires in the [human] brain" and "untangling a bowl of spaghetti," and thus she untangles a memory of her own: "I have an old photo: Rei in her high chair intently / picking out each strand to mash in her mouth. // Was she two? Was that sailor dress from mother? / Did I cook that sauce from scratch? If so, there was a carrot in the pot." Equally inspired by Sei Shonagon's tenth-century Pillow Book and the latest findings of cognitive research, Brain Fever is a thrilling blend of the timely and the timeless.

Book Description
For Kimiko Hahn, the language and imagery of science open up magical possibilities for the poet. In her haunting eighth collection inspired by articles from the weekly "Science" section of the New York Times, Hahn explores identity, extinction, and survival using exotic tropes drawn from the realms of astrophysics, mycology, paleobotany, and other rarefied fields. With warmth and generosity, Hahn mines the world of science in these elegant, ardent poems.from "On Deceit as Survival"Yet another species resemblesa female bumble bee,ending in frustrated trysts--or appears to be two fractious maleswhich also attracts--no surprise--a third curious enough to join the fray.What to make of highly evolved Beautybent on deception as survival--
