“High Pressure Boilers” Book by Steingress & Frost
Overall, I think that this is an excellent book… I originally purchased it to help me study for taking my Chief “A” Boilers Exam for the state of Minnesota. Just to let it be known that this is a great study guide for the “B” Boilers Exams – not the “A” Exams (for Low & High Pressure Boilers – not Turbines, but I figured that when I purchased it)… I really liked that it had “Test Quizzes” at the end of each chapter (there are 12 Chapters in the book) with one of the chapters at the end that has six practice exams. There is one thing that I didn’t like about this book is that there is no “Answer Key” for the quizzes in the book so you would have to go through the chapters to find the correct answer. However, the CD-ROM provided several practice exams & it gave you the correct answers for each question (although there were a couple of questions that even with the correct answer selected, it would still mark it wrong). I took the Chief “A” Boilers Exam for the state of Minnesota in the fall of 2008 & I did very well on it:) Many of the questions on the exam I have seen in the quizzes in this book (mainly in the “Licensing Chapter” & on the CD-ROM), but this is still with the “old test” – I was told that the Minnesota Boilers Exams were going to be updated & made more difficult.After the exam, this book makes a great reference book for boiler operations (such as changing a sightglass, starting up & shutting down a boiler, preparing a boiler for inspection, etc.). Although I really do wish that there was an “Answer Key” with it along with explanations for some of the answers, I think that it’s a great book to have as a “Boiler Operator”:)

VERY HELPFUL TEXT BOOK
This college textbook doubles as a study guide and is a recommended textbook for most state appointed stationary operating engineers licenses. A MUST READ if you’re going to work with steam.

Great resource for Board Test preparation.
This is the best single source for Steam board prep. The 6th edition has a code and web access that replaces the cd-rom from edition 5.The online resource also incudes a chapter on electricity. It breaks down electrical theory in easy to understand sections.The practice exams were spot on in preparing for my City of Dearborn 1st Class Stationery Engineer test. Everything in one text.

A very well written study guide
This book has been very helpful to me, in the transition phase I’m experiencing between military marine boiler technology and terms for high pressure boilers as opposed to civilian shore based steam plants and boilers. Basic principles are the same, but terms for familiar items are different, which is the reason for buying this book.
