Didn't realise it was so small, (collins Gem). As the previous reviwer said it is designed for camper. Enjoyed reading it and has some nice explanations and fresh ideas.

No need for a long review here. This book was written by a professional soldier who was in the SAS, or the Special Air Service. For those not in the know, that's an elite unit of the British Army trained to carry out operations in ALL parts of the world. Eventually, the author became a survival instructor to the SAS, so you can be sure that this guy knows his stuff.
The book covers all you'd ever want to know about the essentials of surviving in climates such as: the polar region, mountains, seashores, islands, tropical regions, or even at sea. Here's few of the many topics the book covers:
-food, what you can and can't eat
-animal tracking with numerous pics
-color pics of edible plants
-pictures of traps and how to trap things
-how to handle animals you've killed for food
-how to make a camp and various shelters
-knot tying pics
-first aid
-color pics of medicinal plants
-picures of dangerous/poisonous critters
-things to have in a survival kit
A very handy resource for anybody who enjoys outdoor/wilderness activities, it's just a darn good thing to have around in case of emergencies- or even just to look at the pictures! Also recommend Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff if you have a shoulder problem that is interfering with your outdoor activities.

A MUST HAVE June 8, 2010

In short, if you camp, travel, hike, fly, sail, drive or anything else, you should read this book! Not just about survival in the aftermath of a nuclear war (!) this book gets you thinking about what you would do to protect yourself and the welfare of those around you in any number of everyday situations and also has great and very usable information on camping and bushcraft, wild foods, fire making and much more. The fact that it is so compact also makes it great to take along with you wherever you go
