5 out of 5 stars Serious Materials for Fire Service   May 31, 2008

I am very pleased with IFSTA's new Essentials book. The updated material, pictures and sections have taken this fire training manual to another level. This is the book for you if you are serious about learning NFPA standards and common fire service strategies and tactics.

Nicely done!
After reading through this book one will know there's more to firefighting than putting the wet stuff on the hot stuff!
This book is divided into sensible segments and all the information is pertinent to the tasks at hand!
An excellent tool for training!

5 out of 5 stars Back to the Basics!   December 30, 2007

Well it's finally here! The long awaited 5th edition. It was worth the wait. They went back to the basics and didn't miss a beat. All the things they took out of the 4th edition are back plus more and it's well explained. They covered each subject in more depth than ever before. In this particular edition they added first aid for firefighters and Haz-mat/Decon. You won't be a Haz-mat tech or an EMT after reading it but it covers enough. It's pricier than earlier editions but it comes with its own study guide on CD. Well worth the price. The other edition only covers the firefighting aspect without the first aid and haz-mat. Go out and get yours today! You won't be disappointed.
