5.0 out of 5 stars Very Valuable Book, November 16, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Assessment Center Strategy and Tactics (Hardcover)
This book was fantastic. It will help anyone going for a promotion. This book gives you a terrific diagram to attack the Assesment Center. You need to bring your own fireground knowledge in, but this book helps you put it in order. I would highly recommend it, the book will pay for itself in a very short time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good book for FIRE TACTICAL scenario thinking, November 28, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Assessment Center Strategy and Tactics (Hardcover)
Very happy I purchased this book. I am preparing for an upcoming assessment center and wanted to really strengthen my mind-set when it came to fire tactical scenarios. This book is excellent for that. Broken down into different type of structure fires (strip mall, high rise, residential, etc) and what strategies to employ on scene. Very informative, NOT too thick....nice and condensed info.

This book is great. I would have given it a five if the author gave just a little more detail.
