4Essential information for all fire fighters  Oct 24, 1998 By Jeff Crow
Working fire fighters can't read this book without feeling both more confident (from their increased knowledge) and more frightened (from realizing how much they DIDN'T know before). While some of the author's "tactical considerations" and advice on actual fireground operations are kind of silly, his knowledge of building construction is vast and he's able to communicate in non-technical, plain English. I learned a lot from this book, and would recommended to any fire fighter.

5THE book for the Fire Service.  Jun 07, 2003 By JC Murphy "crashmurph"
This should be required reading for anyone in the fire service who deals with Structural fire fighting. The book is pretty straight forward and in an easy to read font. I love this book. It also has a pretty decent index if you're using it for school. Out of all the books I've had to buy for school so far, this is the best one. If you're a fan of Brunacini, you may find a few points where they disagree, thus creating the great debate between which author is right. The principles of this book are easily put to use in day to day firefighting and could possibly save your life.

5Must Read For All Fire Personnel  Nov 16, 2002 By Kenneth
This is not an easy reading book. Dry and distant at times it is however the finest collection of fire dept related constrution information ever collated. Whether you like it or not you MUST read this book. The information within could make the difference when your backs against the wall.
