THE TOTAL APPROACH TO GETTING UNSTUCK OFF-ROAD
About This Book...
If you get stuck when you are off-road, remote, and solo, do you know how to self-recover? If you happen upon another vehicle stuck in the backcountry do you have the knowledge, skills, and kit to safely help this person on their way? This is Bob's largest book. Never before has anyone produced a more complete treatise on the topic of off-road recovery. Other 4WD books have thin and impoverished single chapters on recovery, this book covers the topic completely. So ask yourself, do you really want to learn this important disciple completely, or read an impoverished single chapter on recovery?
