One of the best out there.

I've studied, practiced, and taught wilderness survival on and off for around ten years, now. I've read an enormous amount of material on the subject of survival; some of it is quite good (Brown Jr., Wiseman, Davenport, among others), some of it is at best mediocre (e.g., FM 21-76).

"My way's not the only way,.................."

For primitive skill instruction, you would be hard pressed to find a better book.

If you read this book, you will be able to tan buckskin, construct baskets, make primitive pots, make effective and simple...

This is the best all around book on the subject

If I could carry only one book with me, knowing that my plane was going to crash in the wilderness, this would be the book. Let me qualify this statement. I am a pilot and have been practicing primitive survival living skills for seventeen years. My library on survival contains at least thirty books. This book is easy to understand and has multiple, detailed photographs. It should be noted that the section which discusses...
