I wouldn’t call it a hand book
It’s pretty good with ranger tactics and information but why the size? Most of the information like with mountaineering is pretty vague and any knots show aren’t detailed enough to learn.

Some errors, otherwise good
Good version of the publication in a larger format than usual which is much nicer for reading at a desk.Unfortunately there are some errors in the print, the most annoying of which is that someone has clearly copy and replaced "18" to "27th April 2017", which ruins some of the charts and tables.

Ranger Approved
My boyfriend was in RIP 25 years ago - for his 49th birthday he wanted to reread the Ranger Handbook. He said it is almost exactly the same as the edition issued by the Army, just larger than the pocket size they gave him for the field. He loved the trip down memory lane, sharing some of the helpful information with the kids, and retelling old stories from his youth.

Table Sized Not Pocket Sized
I love the easy read and large diagrams of this oversized version. Makes studying the material much easier than from a pocket sized book.

Worth the buy
It’s a lot more readable than the compact versions. Keep it on your study desk but also don’t let the size dissuade you from sticking this in your ruck sack. Only cons is that it doesn’t seem to have all the material from the smaller compact ranger handbooks, but I still need to go through it some more. Other con is that it might not fit in a typical ziplock bag of you’re going to be in the rain. Just get this and a smaller version honestly. Still 5/5 and would recommend to anybody who is in the ARMY or ROTC.
