Excellent Study Guide
This is an excellent selection for an aspiring firefighter. The book gives sample tests to test your skills and also will improve your skills in idle areas. My favorite part of the book is the sample test because after taking and grading the test I would know where I stand. And anything I had trouble on I could study up on. It also provides great information on the physical exam and essential ...

The ABCs and Firefighters to Boot, Great!
My almost three-year-old son Devon loves fire engines. He gets so excited whenever we're out and one goes roaring by, siren screaming. He loves books too and he already knows his ABCs, both upper and lower case and this book shares the credit with a few others and his loving and attentive parents for giving him this gift of the Alphabet as such an early age. He'll be reading by Kindergarten. ...

You either get this or you don't
I have been with my firefighter husband well over 15 years and have always wished for so much - one being this book. No one on the outside can really get the job unless you live it and even when you live it you don't always understand it. The Dr. states issues that I have always wanted to communicate and put out there but never knew how. There has always been things I have wanted my man to ...

Great handbook
This is a great resource for firefighters. I went through the fire academy and spent the past few years using IFSTA Essentials to study with. I found the Firefighter's Handbook to be much more entertaining and enlightening. The chapters read alot easier and seem to be written for firefighters rather than students. It's loaded with more fire service history and many more tips and tricks of the ...

Smoke Your Fire fighter Interview
This book works like a charm. I went to my first interview with a fire dept. and did horrible on my interview. I placed 42 on that hire list. A friend told me about this book so I bought it. My very next interview, with a different dept, which was only a month after the first dept. I aced the interview and I am now #2 on thier list. This is a must have book.

Very cute book - especially nice for the firefighter fan!
Be sure to grab this one particularly if you have little ones who really like firefighters. Its main characters are firefighters, trying to get dressed for the big parade, but they don't have the correct amount of buttons. They have a variety of sizes and shapes but they must be able to sort them in such a way that each firefighter has a set of four. There is a typo in the beginning that talks ...

A Child-friendly Day with Firefighters
Filled with pictures of smiling, friendly firefighters, this book gives a nice "snap-shot" of what firefighters do. The highlights, of course, are on fighting fires. The illustrations are acutal photos of firefighters and their equipment. Some are cheesy and obviously staged, but they're charming nonetheless. The firestation is obviously in a very large city and the equipment they use is ...

To do their job each and every day, firefighters must be strong, fit, and agile enough to force open steel doors, rapidly climb stairs wearing 100 pounds of protective clothing and equipment, and rescue injured people trapped in confined spaces. Is it any wonder why they are considered heroes? Using a four-phase progressive approach to total body conditioning, Get Firefighter Fit presents a comprehensive training method that has proven ...

The Last written preperation book you will need to purchase...
This was by far the hardest portion of the testing process for me. I have all the other test prep books, but none of them prepaired me like Chief Lepore's book. This book not only shows you the question and the answer, but it breaks down the process on how to get the answer. This book should be the 1st book you should buy when going toward a career in the fire service. Thanks Chief for all you ...

The Best "How-To" Book Available For A Career In The Fire Service
As a professional Firefighter and Motivational Speaker, I am finally able to reference a "how-to" entrance book that gives the Fire Candidate the edge they need. Author Battalion Chief Paul Lepore has broken through the barrier of what it takes to become a Firefighter. I've successfully used this book for a one year now, and this book only to prescribe a pathway for a life in the Fire Service ...

Not your typical firefighters book
This is a blessed relief from the run of the mill firefighters book. The text is magical, whimsical and dreamy, and the illustrations are just as outstanding. It reads like the dream of a particularly imaginative kid, which makes it fun to read as a parent. You most definately will not groan when your tot wants you to read it again. And again. And again. You know what I mean. If your kid ...

Excellent Training Book!
This book is quite informative. The NDF (Nevada Division of Forestry) is now using this book, and the accompanying workbook, for Wildland Firefighting Training. It is written in a very detailed manner, and covers just about every aspect that a firefighter may come across in fighting wildland fires. Even if the reader fights wildland fires from their truck, other sections that are included ...

Pretty advanced for what I saw on tests.
I bought this book along with the Barron's book and the combo of the 2 worked well I think (I ended up with a job where I wanted). The reason I gave this only 4 stars instead of 5 is that I took 3 tests and did not see any mechanical aptitude or math questions as advanced on the tests as some of those in the book. I spent a lot of time memorizing formula's that unless you were a mechanical ...
