Summary A coast guard-licensed merchant marine officer and one of the world's only women fireboat engineers traces how she gave up her dot-com desk job to become an engineer aboard a rusty antique fireboat, in an account that describes the rich history that shaped her profession, her service after the September 11 attacks, and her thoughts on the relevance of hands-on work.
