In Robert's first book, Official Pocket Survival Manual, he touches on medical issues. Now in a similar-sized book he covers the gamut of things that can happen to you in the " wild outdoors" . If you do anything outdoors, hunt, fish, hike, backpack, camp, scout or spelunk, this is a MUST HAVE book.
What would you do if you, your family or friends were on an outing and
fractured a leg?
were bitten by a rattlesnake?
were bitten by a black widow or brown recluse spider?
were wounded by an accidental gunshot?
fell in an icy river?
got frost bitten?
cut yourself with a knife?
Here's the book that will eliminate panic and provide instructions for emergency medical treatment that must sometimes be given when no trained professionals are on hand. It measures a miniscule 5 1/2" x 3 1/2" x 7/10" , and its 274 pages are JAM PACKED full of information on emergency medical tips and instructions. There's no fluff in it! Best of all, the type is large enough so an old fogie like me can read it! It's loaded with drawings and line art to illustrate techniques to stop bleeding, place splints, perform CPR, bandage wounds, move and carry an injured person, improvise litters, and much more. There are even anatomical drawings to help you locate bones, blood flow, organs, etc.
This is great book to give you peace of mind in the outdoors. I strongly urge you to order 2 copies. One for your vehicle's glove compartment and one for your living room or evac kit.
