4Incident Management for the Street-Smart Fire Officer  May 13, 2000 By Glenn D. Lauth
A very good book but Mr. Coleman relates a little too much about his department (Toledo Fire Department)when providing examples. I understand that's the way they do it in Toledo, but in other areas of the country things operate differently.

5A Must Read for any Company Officer or BD/DC  Jan 16, 2009 By Dennis Dowhy
I have been a Fire Officer for many years, and for the past 20 years trained officer candidate's on Assessment Type Exams. There is no more powerful book, in simple terms, on how your job should be done. There are too many variations and not enough "exacting" way to do your job as an Attack Officer, a Backup/Water Supply Officer, a Search and Rescue Officer, and a Ventilation Officer. Serious Study of this book prevents freelancing, confusion on the fire grounds, and most importantly pushes one much higher on an assessment style promotion list. It works best in a paid department, however, position assignments make it also ideal for volunteer companies. It may require some small changes to fit the NFA Incident Management System. As a Chief Officer, your companies operate much more efficiently when they are organized, and know what you want. I also think John Norman's book fills in the specifics of each firefighters duties. Both Books are excellent. A must have, and must read for any serious fire officer candidate.

3easy reading  Sep 01, 2007 By Erik D. Segura "firemedic"
this book offers good advice to the newly appointed fire officers/acting officers for fire incident managment.


3Incident Management for the Street-Smart Fire Officer, 2nd Edition (Hardcover  Feb 22, 2010 By Master Card
Has alot of good info, but there is a lot of rambling. There needs to be a proof reader imployed by the publisher. There are numberous mistakes with simple grammer . Spell check worked , but the wrong words were chosen.


5Incident Command For Dummies!!!  Feb 08, 2008 By Scott Miller
This is a well written book that puts together the pieces of firefighting to bring the reader a better overall undestanding of the "big picture". Lots of examples and real-world scenarios. Our department uses this book for promotion exam material for Driver/Engineers. A good first step into Incident Commend for new officers, and deep enough for the seasoned Chief.
