Customer Reviews
A great read.
This book is a great guide to being prepared for natural disasters in any city or suburb. Much of the content is techniques for wilderness survival that have been adapted for what you find in the city. One thing that you don't find in a wilderness survival guide is crime prevention, which is approached well in this book.
Excellent field guide
Tom Brown Jr. is brilliant. This is an excellent must read, there is so much great information in these pages, amazing refernece book, a must have for any personal library.
Poorly organized, not very useful
This book rambles quite a bit and provides a wealth not very targeted information. Do I really need to know how the rain cycle works to survive in the suburbs? Or how a generator works (without instructions on how to build my own out of scraps)?
In all, the useful information in this book would fill a smallish pamphlet. The rest is filler.
A great disappointment.
