    "Working in the Wild" Manual

    I purchased the "Workig in the Wild", Land Rovers manual for Africa a few months ago. It deals with Defenders mainly and only has a few pieces regarding Series rovers. My question is was the same book previously published with its focus on Series Rovers? The book says its a "revised edition".

      book

      Yes, the original was all about the series Land-Rover. So, start looking at used book sites to get that one.

          Year published

          What year was your working in the wild book for series rovers published? The earliest I am finding is 1996 which is for the defender by the looks of it.

            I have a feeling that early on Rover felt that the normal Rover manual 'sufficed' in regards to working in the wilds.

                Bump!

                I would also like to get an earlier "Working in the Wild" book with series rovers. No hate on Defenders, but the older one with series trucks is more relevant to my needs.

                  I have continued to look and have not found any used ones. Any leads?

                      Linky no worky.

                      By any chance did you get the ISBN number? That would greatly help in the search.

                          I did not get back in time from a work trip to purchase it. I will continue to look and will post a link to any I have found.
