Don't Die in the Bush: A Guide to Outdoor Emergencies and Survival Techniques - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Maximum enjoyment of an expedition, climb or walk will be achieved only if preparations have been thorough, and survival in an emergency may well depend on the training and preparedness of those involved. "Don't Die in the Bush" is directed at the inexperienced hiker who wishes to plan outings in a sensible manner and to have available the information necessary to deal with emergencies. With this guide to outdoor emergencies and survival techniques it is possible to consult Professor Leary any time of the day or night - in the comfort of your own home, or far out in the bush. The book is neither a comprehensive manual on outdoor living nor a medical textbook. Readers will find guidelines on planning excursions, advice about direction finding, map reading and camping, lists of appropriate responses in hazardous circumstances and essential information about a wide range of medical conditions. Cross-references at the end of each section draw attention to other relevant information.
