Produktinformationen zu „The Burning Divide (ePub)“
The Fire Department is a very important part of any city because on a day to day basis all types of emergencies develop. In the BURNING DIVIDE the fire and emergency calls were expected but the reality of division was because of race was very prevalent as well so there were two forms of danger to deal with and both had the potential of injury or death. As a black fire fighter you had to be multi-talented to negotiate these obstacles effectively and that makes you confident and aware of all possibilities to do this job and keep a positive mental attitude at all times because many people were watching for all types of reasons.
Autoren-Porträt von Bobby R. Edwards
My name is Bobby Edwards. I was born in Portsmouth, Virginia in the early 50's. Growing up in the 50's in a city such as Portsmouth whereas separation was prevalent was the normal thing during that period. After my senior year in high school I enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard for 4 years and found a large degree of racism. When I was discharged I started night classes and worked at a service station. While doing this I made application to the Fire Department in August 1978 and was hired and remained there for 23 years, after which I became a merchant marine and sailed the seas around the world. For six and a half years I was able to see many things in this world and after which I retired from sailing.I have a strong belief in God, the creator, and each day I thank him for his blessings to me. Many things have happened for me and because of him I am the man that I am. Currently I am married to Brenda, my wife, of thirty years with seven children and nineteen grandchildren.
My hobbies include electric trains, video games and fast cars. Basketball is a favorite sport and I enjoy going to college and professional games. On occasion I like to travel and in the past have been to many countries around the world and seen many things.
