Customer Reviews

"Comprehensive" doesn't begin to describe this book 5
If you ever wanted to know ANYTHING about survival in the wilderness, it's in here. There's so much info in here, though, you might have to spend a few minutes finding it. One of the definitive books in the field.

a must have5
Every time I open this book, I'm amazed at how much information is packed in the 570 pages. Covers everything you need to know, plus some. A great buy, at a great price.

Not as Good as the Army Survival Manual1
Good title but that is about it for this book, compared to the U.S. Military.
