Today, because we¦ve become so technically advanced, we have lost touch with the role we play in the environment.The wilderness has gone from being the backdrop of our lives to a dark and gloomy foreign place. Primitive survivalskills have been replaced with modern ones and the thought of surviving in the wilderness is enough to scare people todeath before they even try. Learning just a few tricks will greatly increase your chance of survival in the event somethinggoes wrong. One thing you won¦t find in this book is a bunch of technical mumbo-jumbo and macho survival sto-ries.Consider this a Cliff Notes series on survival, a book that¦s trimmed the fat and delivers 365 interesting and educationaltips and help you feel more safe on your next outing. Paperback, 160 pages, 6x4 1/2

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it!, September 18, 2001

This review is from: Survivalist's Little Book of Wisdom (Paperback)

If you think quotes from Lucille Ball, Aesop, Herman Melville or Marlene Dietrich can help you survive - then this book is for you!
It offers 355 'pearls of wisdom' - such as:

#270:Talk to yourself out loud
#326:The best way out is always through (Robert Frost)
#289:Hindsight is always twenty-twenty (Billy Wilder)

In hindsight - I wouldn't have wasted my money.
