Good Haz-Mat books.

[dfdex1]

Well it looks like im going to have alot of time this summer since I cant find nor will my dept sponsor FF-I/II training. So I want to focus on another of my career goals and that is to be a Haz-Mat tech someday. So are there any good books out there on Haz-Mat for someone who is fairly new to the subject. I dont want to get something that is going to be over my head and will end up in the bottom of my closet but something I can learn out of.


Thanks
