After the flames : a burn victim's battle with celebrity / Jonathan R. Rose.

Rose, Jonathan R., (author.).

Summary:

On the morning of March 10th, 1988, a house fire engulfed fourteen-year-old Joey Philion in flames. He suffered third degree burns on 95 percent of his body. This book is about one of the world's most famous burn victims: his incredible survival, his nightmarish path to recovery that helped revolutionize medical treatment for burn victims worldwide, the fame thrust upon him after he was declared a hero from the media, and the tumultuous years that followed, most of which were spent under the microscope of an unforgiving public eye.
