So I grabbed this fire reference book since it was free and needed it for my Associate of Applied Science in Fire Science studies. Not done with it yet but it’s pretty simple to follow and has some solid explanations so far, which actually helps when I’m short on time between classes. The print quality’s good and it’s not all boring pages, kinda easy on the eyes. Shipping took around a week but was just fine overall. Figured it’d be a pain but it’s looking like a helpful tool to have handy while hitting the more technical stuff in class.
