This newly revised and expanded "Reference and Training Manual for Professional Tree Climbers" replaces the second edition with two entirely new sections: "The Well-Prepared Climber" and "Working in the Tree." In our view, this is the textbook for performing tree work safely and the most important book in any climber's library.
This book is available by itself, or with the three other Jepson books -- Knots at Work, To Fell a Tree, and Groundie -- at a package price. These, along with our favorite rigging manual, The Art and Science of Practical Rigging, are the foundation for any tree worker's education.
