Latest edition of a book first published in 1868. A near must for all boats travelling away from instant help. This book is a requirement by the AYF for Category 1. It is primarily intended for use on ships not carrying a doctor. The recommended measures of prevention and treatment are therefore confined to those which can be learnt and carried out by the ships officers. In particular this edition incorporates for the first time a Chemicals Supplement. This will be updated frequently to take account of the new substances which ships are constantly being called upon to carry.

We have this book on board and have not needed to use it too often but when the need has arisen we've found it accurate with easy to follow instructions.     Liz & Phil
