True Complete Guide:
This is an excellent book that I will use over and over again in my adventures.
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.

I didn't like this book at all:
I found this book to be poorly written, inadequately edited, and virtually impossible to use alone. 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.
primitive wilderness living:
Information that you will never be able to find anywhere else. If primitive living is your thing, this book is a must read.
