The one that I came across that I like is a small little one called SAS survival Guide. I don't belive it is actually a publication for the SAS. It apears to me to just be a general wildernes survival guide write by a guy John Wiseman who used to be in the SAS.

I like the book because it is small so I can easily throw it in my ruck sack or what ever. It would be pocket size if it wasn't so thick. It also covers a lot though. I think it covers all your things except for posibly, large game and gardening. I want to say that It covers everything else to some extant in the book. Been a while since I have read it so I am going off my memory here.
