SAS Survival Guide: (FREE Bonus Included) 15 Prepper's Lessons You Should Know In Order To Survive In The Wilderness You may think that a survival book is designed for those who regularly undertake dangerous adventures to remote places around the world. However, it is not. The truth is that anyone can suddenly find themselves in a situation where their usual sources of food and drink have vanished and they need to use their wits to survive. If it is likely that a rescue party will be sent out to look for you then it is advisable to stay as close as possible to your last known position. However, if this is not practical or there is unlikely to be a rescue party you will need to keep moving. Surprisingly speed is not the most important factor, caution is! You are in a situation where everything you do could be life threatening. In this situation it is important to remain calm and consider each issue as they arise. There are three key areas to surviving and returning to civilization: Finding a place to shelter for the night. There are several options and your best choice will depend upon the situation you find yourself in and whether you need to find your own way to civilization or wait for a rescue party to find you. Locating adequate supplies of food and water. This may appear to be difficult but it is certainly not impossible! When surviving in the wild you will need to consider food sources that you would not normally find appealing; such as grubs. Finally, you need to know how to navigate home and a few other essential tips which will help you to survive and flourish in the wild.

John "Lofty" Wiseman is the author of the bestselling SAS Survival Handbook, the definitive guide to survival in the wild from Britain's Special Air Service. Now he has compiled a complete guide to survival in the urban jungle. Every year in America there are thousands of fatal accidents in the home—more than on the roads, and many more than in the great outdoors. Fire, electricity, water, gas, sharp knives, poisons, chemicals—these valuable tools can quickly become dangerous weapons when not treated with proper respect and understanding. Add to these the risks of travel, terrorism, muggings, rape, tsunamis, and earthquakes. We are constantly reminded that the world is a dangerous place. Wiseman shows readers how to think realistically and practically about these perils in order to avoid them, whether they are at home, on the street, in school, or in transit. From self-defense techniques to home security systems to coping with natural disasters, this book will teach readers to recognize risks, make quick decisions, and live confidently in the modern urban world.
