# Arctic Survival by Great Britain Air Ministry (Paperback)

**THE ULTIMATE SURVIVAL GUIDE** **for anyone who thinks they'd survive the world's most hostile environments - or at least imagine they could do.**

\-----------------------------

First issued to airmen in the 1950s, the Air Ministry's Sea Survival guide includes original and authentic emergency advice to crew operating over the ocean.

With original illustrations and text, these survival guides provide an insight to military survival techniques from a by-gone era.

Packed with original line drawings and instruction in:

\- The best faces to pull to prevent frostbite and when you can expect bits of you to 'fall off', should you fail  
\- How to build a structurally sound igloo  
\- How to fashion a mask to prevent snowblindness

Focussing on the harshest of situations one can find oneself in, Arctic Survival is one of four reprints of The Air Ministry's emergency survival pamphlets.

Others include:

Jungle Survival  
Desert Survival
