With nearly 300 post cards and photo images, Rhode Island Fire Departments provides an overview of the history and development of fire departments in Rhode Island's 39 cities and towns. In addition to fire prevention and fire suppression, these fire companies and departments have a rich history and tradition within the individual municipalities. Using many images from his extensive Rhode Island post card collection, as well as numerous photographs generously provided by fire departments and other organizations, Joseph E. Coduri has provided the reader with a nostalgic view of the evolution of fire fighting organizations in Rhode Island.
