REVIEWS:

Review by FDNY Battalion Chief John A. Calderone,

In the time period immediately following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, numerous books on this subject were being knocked out on a regular basis. Their content and quality were spread over a wide range. Most of those books had their run and are no longer available. There is no doubt that the attack on the World Trade Center was probably one of the most photographed events in history. This brings us to the latest book on the topic: MAYDAY! MAYDAY! MAYDAY! The Day the Towers Fell. This book is different in that it is a collection of color photographs taken by well-known fire photographer Steve Spak. Few photographers have been able to capture the events of that day from a firefighter's perspective. Steve has accomplished this. Arriving minutes after the second tower fell, Steve shadowed operating units and documented firefighting and rescue operations immediately following the collapses. These are powerful, close-up images that few people, other than firefighters operating at the scene, experienced. He has recorded history in his photographs. This book is available in either soft or hardcover versions and is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in FDNY or in the events of that horrific day. Ordering information is available at www.stevespak.com.

Review By FDNY Honorary Chief of the Department Jack Lerch,

"Steve's Photographic expertise and his detailed knowledge of the New York City Fire Department helps him deliver one of the only 9-11-01 photo books that really show what is was like to be a firefighter on 9-11-01. It shows, from a firefighter's standpoint, what we faced in the aftermath of the terrorist attack and how we regrouped and performed under horrific conditions. This book is a testament to our heroism and sacrifice that we as firefighters and Americans made on 9-11-01".

This is an excellent photo book on the World Trade Center Disaster! Its sure to become a collectors item! Don, the Webmaster NYFD.COM

Steve's Photos jump out at you! They are crisp, large and give you the flavor of that dreadful day! Martin Bleiwas jmap702@aol.com

Hi Steve, Tom from PA here , I got your book "Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, The Day The Towers Fell " . First, it was a great work, I let one of my chiefs,( also named Tom) look at it and he was so impressed with it I think I'll just let him keep it. I also got your video " W.T.C. 9-11-01 Day of Disaster " , the tape and DVD too. Your photographic and video documentation of that murderous day and the rescue/recovery efforts is really unmatched. You've focused your talent on Fire/Rescue, when you could probably have turned to other subjects, and made more money and gotten more recognition, but you picked us. It would be a privilege to have a personalized copy of your book and new video.
