Written By John J. Burzichelli and co-edited by former WLF President Richard J. Gergel, the History of Ward LaFrance Fire Trucks is a soft-bound, 126 page photo archive; complete with introduction and informative individual fire truck captions.

The WLF photo archive history successfully captures the evolution of a company that started as a regional builder and eventually grew to an industry leader, only to self-destruct amid controversy of mismanagement. The Ward LaFrance Photo Archive is a must have for anyone who owns a Ward or simply appreciates motorized fire apparatus! Makes a great gift!
