Helpful Score: 2
This was a really good book. It included a lot of rescue scenarios with plenty of edge-of-the-seat descriptions but it also profiled changes in rescue operations over the years. You will learn how all-volunteer rescue squads are being swallowed up by the beaurocatic need to protect legal interests. Very interesting personality studies. A well-written book.
