<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Burlington, settled in 1642 and incorporated in 1799, began as a quiet farming community. For the first 100 years after the town s founding, no fire department existed, and by 1900, many important buildings had tragically been lost to fires. The loss of these historic landmarks prompted the beginning of a group of volunteer firefighters that protected the town until the first full-time fire department s establishment in 1951. Over the years, the department expanded to meet the demands of the town s rapid growth. Today the fire department consists of professionals constantly striving to improve the department and committed to serving the people of Burlington."
