I have three copies, the large version in the bookcase, and 2 Gem copies, one on our travel trailer and one in our emergency survival/first aid kit that is always with us in our 4x4 vehicles. Yes, it's stuffed with lots of information that you will never need unless you are a world traveler. That said, they are not so large that you won't have it with you if you actually do need it. Have I needed it? YES! But mostly for knots. A lot of the stuff in it, once you read it, you will remember. But tying knots is a perishable skill and memory aids are necessary. In the old Tall Ship days, sailors, on their off-watch time, would sit around practicing their knots. And they used them every day. So it's good to have a small reference book handy to help with the small things that you won't remember. I also have a phone app of animated knots, but batteries die. My favorite bushcraft book is Richard Graves' Bushcraft (clever, huh?). It goes back to primitive methods of making rope, shoes, building houses and subway systems (well, maybe not), and other lifestyle improvements as you wait for rescue (you will have a lot of time on your hands). It's available on desertcart and on the internet in pdf files. Honestly, you can't be too prepared for what may never happen. But you will be thankful if it does! UPDATE: For those who find the typeprint too small to read, get a credit card size Fresnel magnifying lens (readily available on desertcart). It will not only help you read the small print, it will also double as an emergency fire starter. The lens can be easlily carried between the pages of the book. Review: Highly recommend! 5 stars! - The “SAS Survival Guide: How to Survive in the Wild, on Land or at Sea” by John ‘Lofty’ Wiseman is an absolute must-have for anyone interested in survival skills!

The clear, concise instructions and detailed illustrations make it accessible for beginners while still being invaluable for seasoned adventurers. It’s a lifesaver in any survival situation—highly recommend! 5 stars! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #220,459 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #201 in Survival & Emergency Preparedness #332 in Hiking & Camping Instructional Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 5,484 Reviews | ## Images ![SAS Survival Guide: How to Survive in the Wild, on Land or Sea (Collins Gem) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Fhu7+y-KL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You can't be too prepared for what may never happen. *by O***R on May 26, 2019* Well, it's a classic.
