This isn't just a book. It's a life or death Rescue and Survival manual that's long overdue for the Fire Service. It's excellent and defines what RIT and preparedness is all about. Rick and Bob know the dynamics and commitment of what it takes to succeed by experience and it's reinforced in black and white. Make no mistake, this book doesn't leave off at just RIT from the hands on "team" but it covers, in detail, the full scope from the chain of Command. Respsonibility and ability is what makes any evolution successful and there is no doubt these guys know what it takes. Anyone who is serious about learning RIT needs to have this book. Do yourself a favor. Buy it!!

Great book. A must read for anyone on the front line in the fire service. I feel the information contained in this book is essential to performing well on the fire scene and making sure that everyone goes home safe. Being a firefighter, I can say that I have learned a lot from reading this book. Some of the techniques have been around for a while, but many more were new and they are explained in an easy to understand format. If you only read a few books in your career as a firefighter, make sure this book is one of them, for it may save your life or that of your fellow firefighters. God Bless.

Hoff and Kolomay put together a logical, simple, and easy-to-follow book on firefighter survival. This is a must for any fire service library.
