- When the Zombies attack, who you gonna call?

If you have his number, you'll call this author, John "Lofty" Wiseman.

If you don't, you better have this book.

While this book won't help with actually disposing of the zombies, it will assist tremendously in surviving in the desert/jungle/arctic wilderness you've been driven to in your escape.

And seriously, folks, stuff happens. You'll recall that there were air raid shelters when we were kids, all those years ago; and those are now gone.

So when the fertilizer hits the air circulation devices, you'll need to rely on your own preparation and knowledge.

- Comprehensive Survival Text
My husband has the pocket sized version of this which he carries in his backpack. This one is for me. We're avid outdoors people, hiking and camping in the wilderness areas of the southwest and California. It's the "bible" of survival texts which includes emergency medicine, bushcraft, and safety information for every environment. This is a "must" for another serious about spending time in the outdoors.

- Awesome
Well worth the price. If you ever needed it you would be glad you spent the money on it. Anything you could imagine if you were in a survival situation this book has.

Rating:

- An essential for outdoor enthusiasts
This book was excellent at highlighting the need for good preparation and being forearmed with knowledge. Its a great collection of knowledge and experience that applies across most situations and locations.

The format makes for easy reading and reference and the diagrams are easy to follow. It covers all the essentials of navigation, food and water (even sources of salt), game trapping and hunting (inclusive of simple weapons). The author's approach of stressing the importance of good preparation and the manitainance of a "will to live" set the perfect tone for getting into the basics of survival.

Overall, a great buy. Scope for improvement: Make this into a smaller, hardcover or leatherbound, waterproof edition that will easily fit into any camper's bag or outdoor excursion ... Read More
