Good info. kinda weird with the drawings
I really liked the new information that Cody Lundin presented. Some of the info is a no brainer that I didn't think of. The drawings were kinda strange and depessing. Other than that its in my libary of info.
Just general info with goofy and juvenile illustrations
I read the warnings from others who rated this book, but bought it anyway because it was recommended by someone I knew and since it was practically free after adding it to get the super saver shipping. This book offers little you can't find easily for free on the internet, and why the author included those goofy juvenile illustrations is beyond me. As a "survival expert," Mr. Lundin should have been able to produce a much better resource book than this.
Ok for the $$
I thought the book could have been put together a little better. A little less information about the author's quirkiness and a little more usefull suggestions. Contained some good advice and some food for thought (preferably not mice-ka-bobs).
Prepare, Prepare, Prepare!!!
Excellent guide from start to finish. Lundin uses down to Earth, nuts and bolts jargo to create an accessible, highly informative and cogent text. This book should be on all conscientious citizens' coffee table, or at least the back of their toilets!
Simple, practical and tested advice
Despite some enigmatic patches of new-age spirituality and some odd, rather distracting illustrations, Cody's forthright style, keep-it-simple philosophy and dry humor appealed greatly to me. And unlike with many authors, you can be sure that he's actually "walked the walk". When he writes about catching and eating bugs, mice and rats, for example, you can be sure that it's not from a hypothetical viewpoint! Literally everyone should be able to glean some new, useful and helpful information from this book. If you ever expect to experience a hurricane, earthquake or blizzard, you should buy it. If you don't ever expect to experience a hurricane, earthquake or blizzard, you really, really should buy it.
