      This book deals with survival in the desert, the tropics, under arctic and subarctic conditions and at sea. Topics include treating insect and snake bites, making wooden and stone knives, starting a fire, obtaining water (it details how to make a solar water still and make polluted water drinkable), creating a shelter, finding your direction using the sun and stars--and all sorts of ways of getting food--including the Universal Plant Test. This is an Army manual created by the Department of Defense--it's expert and deadly serious. This is for soldiers in very serious conditions (and no doubt camper and those spending time in the wilderness would find it useful--it's like a grown up scout manual.) But this also makes surprisingly lively reading for an armchair adventurer and can be very useful to a fiction writer trying to get the details of survival right.

      If the economy keeps going down this book will even more valuable. This book tells how to survive. How to distinguish edible plants and bugs. How to make shelters, find water, make fire this is a great book to have if camping and hunting do not com natually to you.
