From a master of the craft, any of his books are better than modern renditions that rely on a GPS, satellite phone, and you having all the above in a convenient kit just when you need it. The old knowledge that decided who would survive is more grounding and empowering that any of the "mindfulness" meditations of today's corporate world. (by orders of magnitude)

Informal! Good to know I should avoid eating any mushrooms in a survival situation.

This book is definitely one to read. You will learn to read tracks, make snares, hunt, fish, tell time with no watch, and survive. This is one of the best books that has ever been written on how to survive. Have fun.HHG
