In 20 chapters You can find lots of pictures of historic value, also lost of exotic appliances like tracked or (semi-)armoured vehicles and boats. A big chapter contains the development of the Rosenbauer airport-appliances from the 1970s to the 1st SIMBA.

Unfortunately the book suffers from writing- and formating-errors (not Your problem - the book is on German). Nevertheless it is a must for every ARFF-Insider because zhe pictures.
A 3rd book is anounced.
