1: Practical
Cool book. Very practical about how to survive in the wilds of North America with nothing but the clothes on your back. Maybe not even that!
A little bit of "be at one with nature" stuff, but otherwise very informative. Good choice for a Boy Scout, or anyone wants to "go lite" when hiking and camping - using natural surroundings for cover, shelter, and food.

2: Excellent field guide
Again, this is an excellent field guide put together by Tom Brown Jr. Another must have for anyones personal library. Excellent, life improving information in these pages. Great work!

4: interesting storing telling, poor survival information
This book has many far fetched tales and only a few good survival tips. The author talks alot about what seems to be a fictional character called stalking wolf and tries very hard to make him sound real. I liked a few of his shelter ideas and some of the traps, but there was nothing in this book i havent read before. If you want to read some interesting survival tales and dont care to learn survival skills, this will be a good book for you. my advice, look else where for a good survival handbook.

5: Best Survival Book I've Ever Read
Tom Brown has a writing style that makes otherwise "dry" techniques come alive and stick in your mind like glue. That's where you want the know how to be- in your mind- not left in the pages of Tom's book. As you read the stories, your mind will be filled with colorful movies, complete with sounds and feelings- and when you are through, you'll be confident that you stand a better chance at surviving in the harsh outdoor conditions than before. Get it, you'll be glad you did.
