You want the Best. and illustrations of snakes, plants, insects, and fish are in color. SAS seems to have more information and detail than any of the other manuals around.Well written and organized. Whether it is the larger 5 x 8 size or this small pocket size 3 x 5 version.You will be surprised at how much information is in the small pocket size. This manual would most definitely SAVE YOUR LIFE.It has sections on first aid, shelter, trapping, improvising and living aids. If this was all I had I could survive.
Overall the book is of superb quality. I purchased this from Amazon.com directly, not through some other seller. The item was indeed new however it was printed upside down and backwards of the front cover. I expected a top quality item from Amazon not a misprint.
It's a good read. It covers the basics. I didn't expect the book to be the size of my palm, but it's content is enough for the average Joe. Now if you're being dropped into the Amazon jungle by yourself, then I wouldn't recommend it.
Truly amazing book. this is my fourth copy that I buy, If you like the outdoors this is the book for you, so well describe details.Highly recommended.
The low price makes it a good idea to buy several, one for the car, one for the house and one for the backpack. This is a good purchase for those who need a handy, accessible guide to survival. This guide covers it all, from how to properly hunt, process, cook and store all sorts of game animals and edible plants, but helps you identify the stuff that will kill you or make you sick. The British SAS is THE authority on survival in harsh environments, and the author gives us the advantage of their skills without having to sign up. I never thought to pay attention to dimension sizes when buying books, so I didn't really think the book would have such small dimensions (it's a little bit bigger than a pack of cigarettes), but I am glad it does, it makes it really handy to toss in to a backpack. It also covers the making of shelters and rafts, weapons for hunting, medical aid techniques, weather prediction.the list is just too big to fit in this review. This book is an essential guide for those who do serious backpacking / hiking / camping, or travel overseas to remote regions of the world.
