"Groundie" is the perfect book for the beginning tree worker. Part training manual, employee handbook, and even travel guide, this book will walk the reader--step-by-step--through a typical day of production tree work. From the shop to the job site, all the skills necessary to becoming a successful ground worker are covered in detail. Along with a helmet and chaps, this book should be put in the hands of all newly hired ground workers by their employers or crew leaders.
