Critics Review
“The author has devoted a lifetime to learning and mastering the ways of the wilderness… . His concepts have been proven by the more than 10,000 students who have successfully participated in his wilderness laboratories.” —Booklist
“My first how-to survival book; I carried it around as a teen, learned to make cordage, tried to start a fire from scratch, tried to make a bow, dug a solar still and had a great deal of fun with it. It was always in my car. Somehow, I still own it.” —Lou Cadle, Goodreads
“Extraordinarily informative. As someone who reads and practices a lot of the skills in these books, this definitely stretched the limits of what I already knew and taught me a lot while staying succinct enough to not put me to sleep as so many books like this are prone to do. Definitely recommended for any survival enthusiast.” — Dante Carlisle, Goodreads
