Wilderness Medicine book
My benevolent son bought me this Wilderness Medicine book. I’ve wanted it for a long time but didn’t want to part with the money. I have the field guide by the same author but this book has a lot more detail, better pictures and more information. It’s a great book for people who might want to form a plan for when they get hurt in the wilderness besides lay in the dirt and mewl for help
.
It has lots of ways to improvise first aid treatment. For instance, this nifty way to close a gaping head wound.

“mewl”. Great word, sounds like you’ve run into that type of hiker, haha
