Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great overview!Overall, I think this is a great book. The authors are experienced and let you know if what they are saying is something they read as opposed to something they are claiming to know or have experienced by combining information from everyone (including themselves) or every book they have read. They also point out when and in what types of situations you need to be extra careful. There are important things to be reminded of when practicing these skill and we can sometimes forget we are all still subject ...

Chapter three details making a bow and arrow using modern tools and deer sinew. There's no explanation of how to get deer sinew if you don't have the tools to hunt deer. I'm sure there's information in here. . .the chapter on making fire looked like it may be useful if you're willing to drag through the amateur writing. Overall, however, I found the book to be a waste of time and money. Rating: - primitive wilderness livingInformation that you will never be able to find anywhere else. If primitive living is your thing, this book is a must read. Rating:  - #1 in my collectionI have books on survival skills and this is the most usefull. This book is priceless. Lots of good pictures and everything is explained very well in his own words. If you are interested in wilderness/survival/etc. this is a must have. Just read the other reviews if you don't believe me. Rating: - Great book !!What a great book..super informative, lots of pictures and instructions..If I wanted one book to take into the wilderness this would be it..I can't say enough good stuff about it..Easy too read and learn from.. |
