A Video Lecture On The Chemistry Of Pyrotechnics

I haven't had the chance to watch these videos yet, but they looked like they might be interesting, particularly to those interested in or working in the fields of chemistry, civil engineering, or mining engineering. From the description, the presentations appear to be based off the book Chemistry of Pyrotechnics - Basic Principles and Theory 2nd Ed by John A. Conkling & Crhis Mocella (2011). The Second Edition is out of print and can be pretty expensive, depending on the seller, but it appears that Amazon has the Third Edition for $83 for the print edition (which isn't too bad for a text book). It appears that the video producer has other videos on the same topic on his YouTube channel. 

 From the video description: "**Watch Addendum for corrections: Sucrose formula is incorrectly given as Glucose, both of their end valences are +24 and were unintentionally exchanged**"
