5.0 out of 5 stars Wilderness Search and Rescue: A Complete Handbook, September 14, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wilderness Search and Rescue: A Complete Handbook (Hardcover)
Agreed that some of the information is a bit outdated, however, having said that, it's nothing terribly major. PACKED full of alot of information. This book covers a wide array of Search and Rescue issues which are related through stories and re-told accounts of various rescue situations encountered by the author and others. Overall, a great reference book worth reading. Not something you're going to keep in your pack and haul around the hills though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still a winner, April 23, 2000

Fidel, MD (Saving Lives, everywhere) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wilderness Search and Rescue: A Complete Handbook (Hardcover)
This is a somewhat dated, but still excellent text for wilderness SAR training. Setnicka did an excellent job that has survived well over the years, with only a few techniques and technologies requiring updating.

Warning: This is a very large book - it has to be to hold everything in it!
