"The present edition has been re-written to a very great extent, owing to the advances made in ambulance work. Roller bandaging is introduced for the first time as being more efficient than the old triangular bandage. The latter, however, is still described. A short chapter on Voluntary Aid Detachment work has been added, which, it is hoped, will be found of use to the many detachments that are now being formed throughout the kingdom. Nearly twenty new illustrations have been introduced."--Page 7.
