Kindle 1st aid book ideas?

…is a classic, in its third edition, and available for Kindle. I hav ethe print version at home, and now tha tyou mention it, it makes a ton of sense to get the Kndle version to carry on the road… Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Wilderness-First-Responder-3rd-Emergencies-ebook/dp/B006B539GK/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=8-3&qid=1393513031

NOLS Wilderness Medicine is a really good one. It's kind of a condensed version of Buck Tilton's Wilderness First Responder. Only $8.99 for Kindle version.

I'm partial to Paul Auerbach's books; they're really good and comprehensive. They are, unfortunately, more expensive than the other offerings.

I have the third edition of his Field Guide to Wilderness Medicine. It's really comprehensive; in fact so much so to be overwhelming sometimes. For example, it has information on how to improvise a tracheotomy – not something I plan to ever do! But to me a backcountry medical field guide isn't something to look at when you're in a stressful life-or-death situation; it's more something to look up when you're not in a hurry. So comprehensive is good.

I took my WFR from NOLS and liked it, and liked their book. So that's probably a good option, and I'm considering buying it now. But I'll still carry the Auerbach book because it just has more information.

Sounds like this book category should stick with the "classics" too. Something NOLS based.

I do agree that the heavy reading should be done BEFORE a crisis hits, but I was just looking for a kind of down and dirty quick reference guide. Maybe one of each end of the spectrum is in order.

Who knows? It might be that I'd be the only one with ANY kind of guide, and somebody else might have to read it to work on me! So keeping it simple with pictures was my aim for this project.

Thanks for the tips guys!

Here are some that come to mind:

1. Auerbach's _Medicine for the Outdoors_
2. Wilkerson's _Medicine for Mountaineering_
3. Tilton's _Wilderness First Responder_ (already mentioned, but also on my own shelf)

These are all fairly hefty, so it looks like some of the other suggestions up-thread might work better as "quick-reference" guides.

There is a first aid ap by the American Red Cross.
