      This book intended for reluctant readers provides an accessible overview to the required training, equipment, history, and dangerous work of smokejumpers. A final chapter looks briefly at a few specific episodes from the recent past. The somewhat rushed text is accompanied by small captioned color photos. Directory, reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
