About the Author National Fire Protection Association, Quincy, Massachusetts
Good book D Sanders Good book. Lots of pictures. Very informative. Information is laid out well and easy to read.I don't agree with putting step by step lists in for every little thing in there. I mean, if you're reading this book, you should be proficient for starting the truck, putting it in pump gear, flowing a hydrant, etc. Aside from that, everything else was good.Enjoyed seeing. Awesome book! Bought this book while taking my pump ops class. I enjoyed this book. Well written and goes in depth into the subject. Lots of things to learn here not only as a driver engineer but as an officer and even a firefighter. I kept the book and have it for reference and review. The only thing I wished is that it came with powerpoints or additional reference material to. Good, well informed read While sometimes dry this book is a good read, with information pertinent to fire fighters at any level. Whether just starting out, or as a refresher for a salty old Chief, it is an excellent reference, with much of the relevant NFPA sections cited.
