His interest in backpacking, sea kayaking and sailing small boats to remote places led him to pursue the wilderness survival skills that he has written about in his popular survival nonfiction books and travel narratives such as On Island Time: Kayaking the Caribbean, an account of a two-year solo kayaking expedition he undertook at age 25.

With the release of The Pulse: A Novel of Surviving the Collapse of the Grid in 2012, Scott moved into writing fiction full time.

Reviews

[Tima · Rating 4 out of 5]

The name says it all. This book is a complete list of anything and everything you will need to know or accumulate to help you make it through a disaster. There are lists for every imaginable scenario with spaces to record your own personal lists and plans. The detailed plans allow you to customize the book to your own scenario.

I was a little wary of the book since I'm quite sure that I'll never need to run from a zombie or any other similar situation. But we do have tornados and ice storms in our area and I've felt really unprepared at times. The instructions were uncomplicated, thorough, and covered way more than I anticipated. The write-on lists and worksheets were extremely helpful. There were several things I hadn't even though about needing, if a storm came, that I'm thankful were outlined in this book. Because hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, or storms happen everywhere, this is definitely a book I can recommend to anyone.

I received this book free of charge from Goodreads in exchange for my honest review.
