Good book for basic first aid I think

[Fredrick Danysh · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is the Department of Defense training manual for the care of wounds and injuries. Included are exercises at the end of each chapter to evaluate the reader's understanding. This is a good, useful reference for the outdoorsman, prepper, or survivalist. There are numerous illustrations and photos and the work is written in easy to understand language without lots of medical terms.
