THE book for the Fire Service. June 7, 2003 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
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.
Must Read For All Fire Personnel November 16, 2002 Kenneth (Katy, Texas United States) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
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.
Important information for all firefighters April 14, 2000 Victor J. Sampietro (Allingtown Fire District, West Haven, Ct..Deputy Chief) 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is essential for all firefighters to read, and a MUST for all fire officers! If you want to know anything about building construction for the fire service...Brannigan has the answer.
Very good insight January 5, 2007 C. Newcomb (Iowa) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was lucky enough over the years to have attended classes taught by Mr Brannigan. Yes, it is all over the place. But I can tell you this, this book has saved my life more than once. That was Mr Brannigans motivation the whole time when he wrote this book, not to make money, but to save lives. He was a great man and will truly be missed by many. If you are in the fire service, this should be one of the books you own.
