Hardcover. Condizione: VG+. No Jacket. Second, Revised. The sub-title to "Fire Protection" reasonably sums up the content of this early and important book on the organisation, equipment, personnal and and operations of a "modern" fire brigade. The first edition of the manual was printed as far back as 1876 with this second and r…evised edition published in 1890. In his introduction to this issue of the book Captain Shaw briefly explains the changes and advances made at the London Metropolitain Fire Brigade in the interim. A classic and iconic fire-fighting text, which is now rare, with this copy in particularly excellent condition. New and revised edition of 1890, 348 pages , the book's text is illustrated throughout with b/w drawings, diagrams, tables etc, these ranging from fire fighting equipment and machines, rescue techniques, ladders and hoses, pumps to knots frequently used by firemen. Text information is highly detailed and a double page map of the London area shows the location of fire and police stations and telephone links. An index follows the introduction and at the back, folloiwing the text block, an 20 page advertising supplement contains interesting illustrations of fire-fighting equipment. Red hard covers show traces light wear at spine extremities/corners, spine lightly sunned with gilt titles slightly dulled, base colour to both boards bright and clean with few small marks, lightly inscribed pencil name top corner FFEP (could be erased), few light foxing marks to title and contents pages, small section, not intruding to text, missing top edge page 169/170, text block is otherwise excellent. Text block is tight and firm within boards. Drawings, Diagrams Tables Etc (illustratore).
