Not a first aid guide, but very good April 1, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you want a first aid book, this isn't it. Rather, it's about how to look after someone when away from help. It is comprehensive, though perhaps a bit technical, and there is the question of whether someone could really do some of the things in the book having just read about them. Still, it covers what it sets out to in excellent detail.
Amazing - Very Comprensive! July 25, 1999 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
To quote part of the book, this book is not of the attitude "don't do any harm until the docter comes, because in many wilderness setting the docter is not comming." This is not the book for general first aid and first time learners, rather the more advanced outdoor person who would be in situations where medical help is more than a day away. It explanis more advanced treatments, the backgroud anatomy, and how to address the entire patient not just cookbook first aid.
