 Big book, little print: lots of survival info May 07, 2008
By Backroads
"Scatter-brained book fan"
I spend my summers working for a Boy Scout camp, so I figured this would be a handy reference when I picked it up. And indeed it is! It's a thorough and detailed account of every little survival or outdoor skill you could possible want to know without writing a thesis on any one particular idea. I love the old-fashioned organization and appearance--true handbook style save for the size! Excellent resource! My camp boss is actually looking into picking up more copies.

Survival Wisdom & Know How Mar 07, 2010
By Zack W. Lee
"AK Bush Teacher"
An Excellent, thorough collection of usable survival tactics for the everyday person who has had little or no survival training. Possibly could be a life saver at the right time and place. This is an over-sized, soft back compilation of 480 pages of clear type and black and white illustrations that prepare one for just about any human need to stay alive on the face of the earth. Although it is bulky, it is soft and pliable, about two pounds I would estimate, and could be taken along in a back pack, although it might seem more reasonable to study and learn the applicable parts for your outing and make notes to take along instead. A huge amount of information for an economical price.

Great Book Mar 04, 2009

 Very cumbersome, but lots of information Aug 12, 2008
By Outside
This book has some good material in it and is inspirational for the novice outdoors-person. The material is all compiled from previous publications by the "Author", thus some bits included are rather useless and no insights are offered. A large section covers modern fishing techniques using lures and motor boats as well as other skills not relevant to true wilderness survival. Almost all of the material in this book is included more comprehensively in books I already have and I was unable to find anything "new and exciting". The book is very large, think large coffee table book (13.5 inches tall) and is poorly bound (I was given 2 copies and they both began to loose the cover and some pages within a month). Another book good for the survival library and fun to peruse, but contains little of real value (unless it is the only book you have).

 helpful, but not convenient Jun 05, 2009
By A Chicago Reader
This book was certainly full of important information. While some of it may not be all up to date, this book draws on the tried and true methods of subsisting in the wilderness. That being said, it is a true "survival" guide, and not just an introduction to camping. More importantly, and troublesome, is the unwieldy trim size. It was nearly 12" x 14", and at 488 pages, you'll need to either memorize all the info, or write it down some place handy. A good book, all in all, but not convenient.
