REVIEWS OF THE GUIDEBOOK FOR LINEMEN AND CABLEMEN:
"I do like the way Mr. Van Soelen presents the material. I believe he put together the next linemen?s bible." - Craig Healy/Asst. Training Director & Instructor Missouri Valley AJATC
"I think that the book is well organized and flows easily from basics to the more involved. With so many aspects to the linemen trade it must be very difficult to put it all in order but I feel that the author did a good job of it." - John Hunter/Training Coordinator Cal-Nev-JATC
"I have been using the book for the past six months. I think it is very well done. Easy to read and understand and the pictures say it all.Thanks for putting it together I know it must be very time consuming but for trainers like myself, it's a life saver. I thank you." |
