I have a friend who is in charge of writing up accident reports at his job.. the accidents usually happen on construction sites...

He asked me if I could recommend any books that could increase his vocabulary beyond "fall, hit, tripped, broke, etc..."

I think mainly he wants to describe the actions the workers were doing when they got hurt and what happened exactly (hammer fell, worker tripped, etc...)

I'm not up on the latest books by any means, so any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

What about a thesaurus?
This will give him lots of alternatives. Roget's is supposed to be the best!
Or there is always www.thesaurus.com
