Product Description:
The SAS Survival Handbook is the Special Air Service's complete course in being prepared for any type of emergency. John 'Lofty' Wiseman presents real strategies for surviving in any type of situation, from accidents and escape procedures, including chemical and nuclear to successfully adapting to various climates (polar, tropical, desert), to identifying edible plants and creating fire.

- SAS Survival Handbook
The book is very nice with pictures inside that explain a lot of things i would like to know.
Its is a great survival guide! i definitely recommend it!
Rating: - "Comprehensive" doesn't begin to describe this book
If you ever wanted to know ANYTHING about survival in the wilderness, it's in here. There's so much info in here, though, you might have to spend a few minutes finding it. One of the definitive books in the field.
Rating: - a must have
Every time I open this book, I'm amazed at how much information is packed in the 570 pages. Covers everything you need to know, plus some. A great buy, at a great price.
Rating:
- Not as Good as the Army Survival Manual
Good title but that is about it for this book, compared to the U.S. Military.
