User Comments about the Essentials of Fire Fighting and Fire Department Operations (5th Edition)

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

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.Doug NeathTraining Chief, City of Concord VFD

They went back to the basics and didn't miss a beat. The other edition only covers the firefighting aspect without the first aid and haz-mat. In this particular edition they added first aid for firefighters and Haz-mat/Decon. It's pricier than earlier editions but it comes with its own study guide on CD. Well it's finally here.

It was worth the wait. All the things they took out of the 4th edition are back plus more and it's well explained. Well worth the price. Go out and get yours today. The long awaited 5th edition.

They covered each subject in more depth than ever before. You won't be disappointed. You won't be a Haz-mat tech or an EMT after reading it but it covers enough.
