Book Reviews of Survival Wisdom & Know How: Everything You Need to Know to Thrive in the Wilderness
Book Review: helpful, but not convenient
Summary: 3 Stars
This book was certainly full of important information. 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. More importantly, and troublesome, is the unwieldy trim size. 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. A good book, all in all, but not convenient.
