Great book
Love this book, it contains some great hints and tips on survival, that in addition to the layout of the book with good illustrations and flow diagrams make it an easy reference manual. I would love to see a compact (packet size) version produced. In addition to the book the fact that all proceeds are going to a good cause make it well worth the money. Well done Colin
Survival Handbook - excellent purchase!
Excellent book! Fantastic pictures! The only shame is that the book is quite big and it would be very akward to travel with it...
The only survival book you will ever need!
I spent 3 years teaching survival to various members of the UK Armed Forces - This is the finest book of this genre on the market. A must buy for outdoor enthusiasts and the general public, you just don't know when you may need a bit of knowledge! An excellent cause to donate money to aswell. Buy it.
