Most bad outcomes don't start with a bear or a blizzard. They start with one panicked decision in the first ten minutes.
Here's the problem. Much of the survival advice people still repeat is wrong. Cut a snakebite? Wrong. Rub frostbite? Wrong. Crouch in a lightning storm? Wrong. Trust clear, fast-running water? Wrong.
This guide fixes that. It keeps what still works from the Air Force's classic AFR 64-4 training and checks the rest against today's first-aid, weather and rescue guidance. 328 skills. Step by step. No fluff.
Inside, you'll find:
- How to take control in the first five minutes with the STOP routine and a priority ladder that stops panic decisions.
- Stop severe bleeding and treat injuries far from help, following the 2024 American Heart Association and Red Cross first-aid guidelines.
- Stay warm without a tent. Ground insulation, storm tarps, windbreaks and your car as a shelter.
- Start a fire in wind and rain with feather sticks, a ferro rod and the right fire lay.
- Make questionable water safer to drink with boiling, filters, tablets or plain household bleach.
- Find your way without GPS. Map, compass and resection, plus the sun, the stars and a homemade needle compass.
- Get found faster. Text 911, use satellite SOS and beacons, build ground-to-air signals and work safely with a rescue helicopter.
- Handle snow, desert, jungle and open water, including rip currents and falling through ice.
- The Emergency Quick-Finder. Someone is bleeding, a car is stuck in snow, thunder is rolling in: turn straight to the right page.
- The "Then and Now" guide shows which old survival advice can get you hurt, and who says so.
- Protect your family at home with step-by-step plans for hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, wildfires and power outages.
- 8 photocopiable checklists: 72-Hour Emergency, Personal Survival Kit, Vehicle Kit, Water Treatment, Distress Signaling, Navigation, Heat & Cold Recognition and a Household Emergency Plan.
No military background, expensive gear or experience needed. Every skill tells you when to use it, what you need and the mistake to avoid.
Scroll up and click “Add to Cart” to find out exactly what to do in the first five minutes of any emergency.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
