"The original version of Primer of Towing was first contemplated during the late 1960s and published in 1975. Its purpose. . . was to acquaint beginners with common towing industry practices that they might not be familiar with.... "It dealt with the mechanics of towing operations from the operator's point of view, and confined itself to how something should be done rather than why it should be done that way.... "The premise for the second edition of Primer of Towing is much enlarged. The basic instructional process for beginners is still incorporated into the text, but in considerably more detail. Dynamics as well as practices are discussed for a more comprehensive view of this subject."
