Reviews
Unabashedly aimed at armchair "survivors" only, this brief entry in the Prepare to Survive series blithely shows readers washed up alone on a tropical island how easy it is to find water, build a platform shelter, catch fish (or, failing that, bugs), start a fire, and contact rescuers. The frequent illustrations feature color photos of hunky men and members of the cast of the TV show Survivor, plus occasional simplified diagrams of a solar still, the correct way to escape quicksand, and the like. More practical advice about what to do when lost can be found online, in scouting manuals, and in handbooks like Guy Campbell's The Boys' Book of Survival (2007), but this will be good for quick flights of fancy.

    This book is so cute and it arrived quickly and in perfect condition. The seller packaged the book between two pieces of cardboard to make sure it didn’t get all bent up during shipping. Great book and excellent customer service.
