SAS Survival Guide: How to Survive in the Wild, on Land or Sea by John ‘Lofty’ Wiseman
‘The definitive guide to not dying when you’re outside.’
Would you know what to do in the event of a fast-spreading flash fire? How about a flood? What would you do if you were stranded with nothing to eat? It’s time to face reality, you’re unprepared, unsafe to be walking around in the wild. You need this book.
Written by survival expert John ‘Lofty’ Wiseman, who is most definitely not anything like either Bear Grylls or Ray Mears, the SAS Survival Guide is a real-world, practical guide to staying alive when things get hairy. It might seem like overkill for your everyday person to be learning these sorts of skills, but hey, the zombie apocalypse has got to come some time.
A solid addition to any outdoor-lover’s book collection, keep a copy in the car, and one in your rucksack.
