What Customers Say About Survival Wisdom & Know How: Everything You Need to Know to Thrive in the Wilderness:

If you could only have one how to book, this is it. this is an great book, it has all you need to know.
More importantly, and troublesome, is the unwieldy trim size. This book was certainly full of important information. A good book, all in all, but not convenient. It was nearly 12" x 14", and at 488 pages, you'll need to either memorize all the info, or write it down some place handy. While some of it may not be all up to date, this book draws on the tried and true methods of subsisting in the wilderness. That being said, it is a true "survival" guide, and not just an introduction to camping.
Military survival manuals of all types are more to the point with time proven skills. Keep it simple and to the point. It is a big book, I guess they pulled up the kitchen sink and put in here as well. Oh the small print come on give me a break, it makes my eyes hurt. There are better buys out there. Mostly like a shotgun pattern.if you throw everything in old or new.you have to be impressed about the size. It is content that is important here, not size.
a good buy i bought this book not realizing the size of it or the low quality paper and binding but im an very impressed, not only does it have everything you would need in the wild but it has step by step details and other ways of doing things from the u.s. army to the indians.
It is definitely not a feild guide that you would bring along outdoors. It is a very large book with a wealth of information. More info than one could quite possibly absorb.
