Written by a former SAS Chief Survival Instructor, this book packs an astonishing amount of battle-tested, practical knowledge into an accessible format. It covers absolutely everything you could ever need to know, including building shelters, sourcing and purifying water, foraging for wild food, navigation, first aid, and handling extreme weather or natural disasters.

Whether you keep it on your bookshelf as a fascinating reference or slip the lightweight pocket edition into your rucksack for a weekend wild camping trip, it is the most reliable, comprehensive, and life-saving handbook you can own.

The content is excellent and I was nicely surprised when I saw the size. It is quite small but will fit nicely in a pocket or in your kit bag.

Finally got my hands on something with the internet after living in the woods all winter and summer and living off the land catching squirrels, eating nettles and drinking from the bladders of sheep. Built myself a shelter. Also learned how to incapacitate a bear with my bare hands. Followed the book from front to back and now plan on moving to rural America only for the local sheriff to take a dislike to me so I can evade capture in the woods.

The small pocketable dictionary sized version. Great book, very useful for that bug out bag.

I thought I knew it all but this book has not disappointed , if you ever find yourself in a survival situation even just for a few days this is the book for you. So if you think you know it all then this book will surprise you as it did me.

Info in the book looks good and theres lots of it. 3 stars because images in the advert showed a bigger book, which was quite misleading. Its great for taking out and about, but reading the inner corners of the book is difficult and the print size is tiny. Struggle to read, even with my glasses on. Otherwise, a good book with plenty of information in it.

まあまあ参考になる。読んでいて想像が広がり、ためになる。

I must say I'm rather impressed with this book. I knew it was compact and I'm not bothered by the small font size. But it's exactly something, in this size, that you want to carry easily when needed, even in your pocket, literally. A loooot of useful info - from how to create a shelter in the forest, through tying knots, prepping food, understanding clouds... Reaaally detailed. And a lot of images & pictures, incl. the color ones (of plants & animals).

Goed

For some reason I didn't think it was a small book. Should have read it better, but it didn't matter and actually love the fact that it is small, compact, and easy to carry. Very useful, and loaded with information. Mostly practical and easy to follow. Great little friend to have along.
