    SAS Survival - 5 stars
    SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea Review
    I have always loved camping in the wilderness, and am always perfecting my skills at it. This book is full of information, and some even I never knew. This I would have to say is by far the best book I have ever seen. If anyone is thinking about bettering there skills in the outdoors this is a very good book. If anyone is an outdoors fan as I am, this would be a very BIG plus to have. If you like camping, hiking, hunting, or fishing without using all the high tech gadgets of today, or as a very good backup plan to these high tech gadgets, this is the book to have.
    Wonderful Handbook - 5 stars
    SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea Review
    If you get this book, it will keep you busy for a long time.
    I learned auite a bit on subjects I'm already quite familiar with not to mention learing traits of which I'm not familiar with. It is quite large for a "handbook" however I have not found a page to remove as 'not needed'. Still looking for a 'pocket' version.

    When the Zombies attack, who you gonna call? - 5 stars
    SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea Review

    If you have his number, you'll call this author, John "Lofty" Wiseman.

    If you don't, you better have this book.

    While this book won't help with actually disposing of the zombies, it will assist tremendously in surviving in the desert/jungle/arctic wilderness you've been driven to in your escape.

    And seriously, folks, stuff happens. You'll recall that there were air raid shelters when we were kids, all those years ago; and those are now gone.

    So when the fertilizer hits the air circulation devices, you'll need to rely on your own preparation and knowledge.

    This guy (Lofty) is the THE guy in the area of survival. After 26 years with the SAS, he's taught survival and hand to hand and God knows what else, and he is as matter of fact as can be about teaching what he knows.

    This book is sort of like an explorer scout handbook on steroids. It provides simple, direct instructions about how to survive in all sorts of different environments, and how to obtain critical resources including food and water from those various environments.

    Now, just having the book is better than nothing.

    Even better is reading the book and putting together the "kit" he suggests (including knife, flashlight, and so on) in preparation for the zombie invasion, BEFORE that eventuality occurs.

    This is a very good book. While Lofty knows a lot about a lot, he had to cram a lot into one book. This book won't tell you in great detail how to build or use a bow and arrow. It won't tell you in great detail how to hunt, fish, or prepare wild game.

    On the other hand, having this much info is WAY better than being as dumb as you currently are (you haven't butchered a wild pig, have you? And you don't know the major difference between prepping a sheep and a pig, and the reason for the difference, do you?

    Well, neither did I; but having read it once, it'll stick. And if I'm lucky, I won't have to deal with a reactor spill, or rocket attack, or zombie invasion; but this book is a useful book to have read, in the event that the dam does break, or the Creek do rise.

    Comprehensive Survival Text - 5 stars
    SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea Review
    My husband has the pocket sized version of this which he carries in his backpack. This one is for me. We're avid outdoors people, hiking and camping in the wilderness areas of the southwest and California. It's the "bible" of survival texts which includes emergency medicine, bushcraft, and safety information for every environment. This is a "must" for another serious about spending time in the outdoors.
    Awesome - 5 stars
    SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea Review
    Well worth the price. If you ever needed it you would be glad you spent the money on it. Anything you could imagine if you were in a survival situation this book has.
