Episode 5 - Firefighters of Belfast with Brian Allaway
In this episode myself and Sam McIlwaine talk to Brian Allaway. Brian is the author of a new book 'Firefighters of Belfast - the Fire Service During the Troubles 1969 - 1994' (Luath Press). Brian joined the Belfast Fire Brigade in 1969, just as the Troubles were beginning, as a 16-year-old trainee. In his book Brian brings together his own often traumatic but courageous experiences with similar memories from former colleagues and friends who he interviewed. The book is available from Luath Press: www.luath.co.uk/productsf/firefighters-of-belfast & Amazon: www.amazon.co.uk/Firefighters-Bel…ay/dp/1912147459
