Technical Rescue Operations, Volume II: Common Emergencies is the
second in a three-volume series by Larry Collins. Volume II covers
responding to, managing, and conducting rescues in the "daily"
setting of fire/rescue agencies. This includes the kind of
technical rescues that confront firefighters and rescuers on
practically a daily basis. This volume also explains how to handle
more complex and large-scale rescue operations that challenge
responders to apply solid rescue principals for longer periods of
time, with the assistance required of additional resources and
under more strict command and control because of the scope of the
incident, its newsworthiness, crowds of people arriving on the
scene, and getting the immediate attention of local or regional
elected officials.
