Book Progress

Joseph B. Ross Jr., CFPS, EFO, presently working in emergency response for the Federal Government, former faculty member of the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute, and retired Special Operations Chief of the Anne Arundel County Fire Department is writing a book on the Arundel Park Fire.

Joe, who has written articles for Industrial Fire World, Fire Engineering, Firehouse, Maryland Fire Dispatch, and the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute Bulletin is close to completing a work that will result in the most comprehensive collection of information surrounding Anne Arundel's deadliest and most controversial fire.

Although he has compiled a large amount of information, more is needed as follows:

• Pictures of the fire other than what was in the formal reports.
• Pictures of the building before the fire.
• Any information about the fire:either first hand, from relatives of the survivors or the deceased, or any other person who would be interested in sharing information about this fire.
