Avoiding dangerous mammals, building and lighting a campfire, choosing a campsite, crossing safely over water, mastering common knots, outfitting for cold weather, recognizing poisonous snakes—such is the subject matter of Survival Wisdom and Know-How. It's a sort of "dangerous book for grown-ups" (see p. 52). If you enjoy making your way in the wild, you'll find this information-packed volume essential. (At about 10½"x13½", it's no compact little guide, so you won't want to stuff it in your backpack.) For us strictly-armchair explorers, it opens up a whole new world!
