Not a quick reference,

This review is from: ACEP: Pocket First Aid (ACP Home Medical Guides) (Paperback)
I bought this looking for a quick reference guide. 128 pages of microscopic text is *not* conducive to finding info in an emergency. If you want a quick reference guide, buy the FastAct Pocket First Aid Guide. This tries to be in-depth but can only do so much even in type this tiny; if you want an in-depth guide, buy the The American Red Cross First Aid and Safety Handbook. Whatever you want, this isn't it.

I was totally surprised to get this awesome little book. I thought it would be a bigger book that I would have trouble fitting into my emergency preparedness first aid bag, nope, it is small and fits in nicely but best of all it is very thorough and has pictures to guide you through things. This was recommended to me by a Dr. friend of mine so I went on his recommendation, it is a wonderful book to have and covers just about every emergency I can think of and more. Great buy!!

This is a tiny book which fits anywhere! I keep one in our family's first aid travel kit. Although it is one book I wouldn't want to read, being prepared and organized is a plus. I basically liked the portable size, the contents is your standard non-professional first-aid procedures.
