May 20, 2008: I purchased this book as a person who rarely finds anything of use in the typical survival manual most books tend to copy the old military survival manuals. That being said, I looked through this book and, because it seemed to have more than your 'run of the mill' information, I decided to buy it. What a wise choice. Mr. Lundin's philosophy of survival is different than most and I feel he does a great job of presenting information in an easy-to-read manner. Instead of just presenting basic information, the author delves into the reasons behind what one needs to do to stay alive. I especially appreciated his focus on sanitation in survival situations, as this issue oftentimes seems neglected in the current survival literature. I found his information not only useful in true 'survival' situations but also practical advice for those seeking to prepare emergency clothing, food, shelter, and clean water for a few days or a few weeks. Packed with practical information and told with a very entertaining style, this book is one of the better books out there. I definitely would recommend this book for everyone from the day hiker to the ardent 'survivalist'
