Ernie Martin is an unknown quantity at this point
I always start the front first, but I thought that is what the book says. If I recall, it's because of the shorter run between the battery and the engine. If you happen to be in a highly marginal situation, where there is barely enough energy in the battery to barely turn an engine, then you want it to be the front engine, where you might get 3 or 4 revs before the battery dies, compared to the rear engine, where you might get 1 or 2 revs because of the higher cable resistance.
