Paperback. Zustand: Used. Ever gazed at a title like "Last Man Down" and thought, "This sounds like a riot!"? Well, you must possess a unique sense of humour, because Richard Pitch Picciotto?s 2002 opus, published by Orion, could very well be the darkest form of comedy since the invention of the whoopee cushion. This riveting ac…count, though packaged as a memoir, dares you to chuckle as you sit on the edge of your seat, your heart racing faster than a squirrel on espresso. In the vein of "How to Be the Last One Standing in a Game of Extreme Musical Chairs," Picciotto takes us through a labyrinthine journey of survival and human resilience. You might find it hard to believe that this tale, ripe with heart-stopping moments, also carries a subtle satire on the absurdity of modern-day heroism. Witnessing one man?s battle against the odds feels less like a rallying cry for the brave and more like a slapstick routine at a funeral. Who said heroics can?t be both deadly serious and amusingly ironic? As you flip through the pages, prepare yourself for the dizzying juxtaposition of nail-biting suspense and introspective musings on the nature of bravery. Would you find yourself in a similar bind as Picciotto? Let?s face it; unless your hobbies include rescuing cats from trees or training for marathon cheese-rolling competitions, you?re better off reading about his escapades than attempting your own. It?s safer, not to mention less likely to land you in a police report. The book?s cover art hints at the drama within: muted tones and an imposing figure that could just as easily be a firefighter or the guy who forgot to unplug the toaster. This visual ambiguity might even lead you to ponder the true meaning of the title. Is it about being the last man standing, or merely the last one to order a coffee before the apocalypse? Either way, Picciotto?s engaging prose ensures that you?ll be laughing with (or at) him throughout this rollercoaster of a story. A gripping narrative that might just make you reconsider your career choices. Humour that strikes like a lightning bolt in a rainstorm. Reflections on the absurdity of heroism that will have you questioning your own life decisions. Dynamic and entertaining prose that often feels like a dance-off with fate. A reminder that sometimes, the last man down is simply the one who tripped over his own shoelaces. Condition: This copy is used, which means it may contain all the charming quirks of a book that has lived its best life?perhaps a few dog-eared pages, the occasional coffee stain lovingly placed by a previous owner who clearly didn?t appreciate the fine art of coasters, and a distinctive smell reminiscent of a long-lost library or the attic of your favourite eccentric aunt. It?s not just a book; it?s a conversation starter, a relic, and possibly your new best friend. So, if you fancy yourself a connoisseur of quirky tales or simply want to experience the wild ride that is "Last Man Down," look no further. This literary adventure awaits you at Crappy Old Books, where we celebrate every dog-eared page and quirky narrative twist as if they were rare treasures. Adventure, irony, and the occasional chuckle await?grab it before someone else does! THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. First Reprint. On 11 September, leading a company of firefighters up stairway B of the north tower of the World Trade Center, Battalion Commander Richard 'Pitch' Picciotto was the highest-ranking fire department commander in the building when it fell. Pitch and his men wer…e on the thirty-fifth floor racing upward when the world seemed to explode around them as the south tower collapsed. Realising the possible fate of the north tower, he led the firefighters down to the twelfth floor where they were met with a horrifying sight - more than fifty workers, too crippled, too old or too weak to have made their way out on their own. Pitch ordered his firefighters to form a human chain and pushed and cajoled them down the stairs. He was on the seventh floor stairwell when the north tower fell, accordioning into a mound of burning rubble. Pitch and a handful of survivors woke to find themselves buried on the landing between the second and fourth floors. This is the story of how Pitch Picciotto led the survivors to safety. Illustrated.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
