New Zealand Rescue Helicopter Crewman's Book Available For Free

'Emergency Response: Life, Death And Helicopters' E-Book Can Be Downloaded From Multiple Sources

A new book chronicling the work of Dave Greenberg as a member of the Life Flight - the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service has been published, and an e-book version can download it for free.

In an email to Aero-News, Greenberg said that the book has been published by Penguin Random House, and he requested that it be made available at no charge as a download for e-readers "from most ebook retailers."

According to the book synopsis from Amazon:

"When Dave Greenberg was just 13 years old, he saved a life for the first time, using CPR. He already knew that he wanted to spend his life helping others in times of crisis, and that harrowing event on a city footpath only confirmed this desire. He went on to spend 25 years working with Life Flight - the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service in Wellington, New Zealand, taking part in many daring rescues on land and at sea, often taking the role of 'the dope on a rope' - their own term for the rescuer who dangles from a winch over stormy seas trying to pluck people from heaving ship decks or from the ferocious waves. These are his stories."

The book was initially published by Penguin Random House last year, Greenberg said.
