Sinopsis

In this insightful book, veteran firefighter and author Jeff Rothmeier aims to galvanize the minds of firefighters so that they can fulfill their potential and execute effectively in the moment of truth. Training to act effectively means understanding individual tactics fully.

Understanding the nature of combat, fire, and humanity informs their instincts. A proper philosophical approach to firefighting is the key to tactical excellence.
