Review Quotes: "I would say it is a must-have addition to the toolbox for anyone out there using chainsaws - whether you are in forestry, aboriculture, or even a backyard handyman."
Peter Chaffin, Australian Arbor Age, Dec 2009
"The format of the book is easy to read supported with diagrams and pictures. The pages are not overloaded with information and are well set out so as not to overload the reader. The sequence of the chapters allows for a logical development of knowledge."
