5.0 out of 5 stars Every household should have this book, 9 Jul 2002
By A Customer
I've owned a copy of this for some time (I bought it as soon as it came out, because I already had a copy of the SAS Survival Handbook and loved that). Both volumes are used on a regular(ish) basis in our house. The Urban Survival Handbook covers all sorts of things including: personal security and self-defence, what to do if you get arrested, household risks (e.g. gas leaks), DIY and craft hazards, Poisons and poisoning first aid, fire risks, transport safety, terrorism, natural disasters and solid health advice.

The writing is no-nonsense and easy to follow, written by an ex-member of the British Special Forces. It's very realistic and even has a sense of humour in places. Highly recommended on all counts!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for everyone, 15 Mar 2001
By matthewmuckley@aol.com (Kent, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book may not look like much, but it carries a great amount of knowledge that everyone will need and use at one point in their lives. I really recommend this book. It is clear, and describes everything with crystal clear precision. Once you pick it up and start reading, you won't be able to put it down. A handbook that everyone should have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Has every situation covered, 9 Oct 2001
By Ms. Lynn D. Patterson "Lynndyloo" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A Brilliant book, especially in uncertain days, every survival situation covered, one fault to my mind is there is no mention of where you can obtain the survival products mentioned in the book i.e.chemist, camping shop etc.
