Fire Apparatus and Equipment Mastery: Tools of the Trade is a definitive guide written by Eric J. Neal, an experienced fire service leader who has served in roles from firefighter to fire chief. Crafted with passion and precision, this book is more than a manual-it's a mentorship in print. With a boots-on-the-ground perspective and a deep respect for the traditions and advancements of the fire service, Neal offers firefighters of all ranks a practical, comprehensive, and insightful exploration of the tools, tactics, and technologies that define operational excellence.

This book is built for those who want to master their craft-not just operate within it. Whether you're riding the tailboard, in the engineer's seat, or leading a crew into dynamic situations, Fire Apparatus and Equipment Mastery arms you with the knowledge and mindset needed to perform confidently and competently. It is a valuable resource for recruits in the academy, seasoned engineers refining their pump operations, or officers responsible for readiness, training, and accountability.

Inside, Neal dives deep into the mechanical, technical, and strategic elements that make a fire department run effectively. Each chapter is built around real-world application and fireground performance, emphasizing not only the ""how"" but also the ""why"" behind equipment selection, apparatus operations, and tool deployment.
