In a wilderness first aid book, you can find information on how to respond to medical emergencies in remote outdoor settings. This includes guidance on treating injuries, managing illnesses, and providing first aid until professional help is available. The book may also cover topics such as assessing the situation, stabilizing the injured person, and navigating the wilderness while seeking help.
A First Aid is just the person that gives the FIRST aid. The treatment that is initially received. First aid could be just applying a bandage.
