Amazing book, highly recommended to all who camp, day hike, or even just go for a conoe trip, you never know what might happen, and Cody Lundin gets you ready for any possible scenario by showing and explaining some clever ways to pack an efficient, yet keep your survival kit small enough to carry all the time! Let's face it, if it's not small, you are unlikely to bring it EVERYWHERE and it's the one time you don't bring it that you will end up needing it, (MURPHYS LAW). This is not a book you bring in the woods with you, this is a book you need to have read BEFORE you disembark, take off, jump in, or jump out. ENJOY AND LEARN THROUGH REPITION IN THIS GREAT READ!
Cody may be a barefoot hippie to a lot of people but I think everyone could learn and practice some of Cody's values. Lundin is about not only being prepared but also keeping an eye out for opportunity and along with any possible threats. I feel we all could live our lives by being more "simplistic,opportunistic, and globally conscenous". The fact that Cody has proven that one can survive by living in a tee-pee for 2 years while walking around barefoot only shows that just cause you are an upper middle class soccer mom doesn't mean you have to drive around in a gas guzzling SUV. I just want to say thank you Cody and I will see you at Costco.-josh
This book is a practical and simple solution, for anyone wishing to find ways to make use of commonly used but frequently overlooked items for wilderness survival. The most essential items are listed and used for the production of fire, water gathering, emergency shelter, first-aid, and morale. Everything from knife selection to cotton balls, petroleum jelly, iodine and combustible metal. An excellent quick read for humor and practical use. My new go to reference point for my 72 hour survival kit.
I wanted to believe this book would be helpful and of merit, but was dissatisfied. Not only are the cartoons meaningless and just dumb, but I doubt they appeal to anyone with any degree of intelligence. Mr. Lundin does not present much that is new, and instead bores with four... yes FOUR pages of info on the merits of a Bic lighter. Skip this book.
