- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It is a good practical survival guide. There are many advices that can be used in your everyday life.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In book memes, there is invariably a question about which book you would want to take along with you on a deserted island. Most people answer something like the Bible or the complete works of Shakespeare. I always answer this book. It covers everything from urban survivalism (don't get too attached to pets; you may have to eat them) to how to survive a plane crash into the ocean. Of course, you have to read the book before you need it, but it would be good to add to any backpack before a trip. The added couple of pounds could come in very handy.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Fun making bear-traps in the garden. The first aid section is really good as well.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Pretty freakin good, I can take a big game animal down if I need to now, hopefully it won't come to that as I am vegetarian :)But in all seriousness you need to practice these skills if you want to be able to really survive if put in a bad situation. Highly recommended for anyone interested in survivalism.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Quite useful as a "textbook" to supplement the survival courses which I have done over the years.
