Summary: "My way's not the only way,.................."
Review: For primitive skill instruction, you would be hard pressed to find a better book. Everything they write about, they have done.
In John McPherson's own words, "There may be other ways to do it, maybe even some better, but these work!" Yes, Mr. McPherson, indeed, they do. There can be no better praise.

Summary: Together with David Wescott`s books you don`t need more!
Review: For those really interrested buy the "Primitive Technology, books " by David Wescott (these are bigger and have real good drawings)and the two " Naked into the Wilderness" books by the McPhersons (smaller and quit bad quality black and white pictures). In addition you only need to stop reading after a while, go out, and do your thing!

Summary: Easily the best book on the subject
Review: Hands down this is the best survival book anywhere. The difference between this book and the majority of survival skills books is that most books will talk about why you should make a waterproof shelter and discuss the building of a waterproof shelter, but they won't tell you EXACTLY HOW to build it. If you read this book, you will be able to tan buckskin, construct baskets, make primitive pots, make effective and simple bows, make cordage, construct semi-permanent shelters, flintknapp basic tools, start fires from natural materials and much more. This book is not about "surviving," rather it's about "thriving" in a wilderness situation. The McPhersons have written the best and easiest to read book you can find anywhere. We liked this book so much we made it the book of the month at RFS Online for August 1999.

Summary: Dont waste your time
Review: I didnt learn anything from this book. Everything is so complicated. It is not for people how dont have any idea about survival living.
Rating:
Summary: Far and away the best book
Review: I have read everything the McPhersons have written and their material is heads and shoulders above anything else out there. The attention to detail and the little things that make a book great are all in this book. Forget the rest, just buy this book!

Summary: The best wilderness living book I have ever read
Review: I think this book is a must read even though it doesnt cover every aspect of living off the land, it still teaches you many things, because you can understand the writer, he is a person who started out just like many of us only knowing a little and then read and went out in to the field to experiment on what he read. He tells you many times in the book that he is not a know it all on many of the ways of living in the wilderness so this shows you that he is just like the common reader. I recommend this book to every one who is as intrested as I am in wildernes. (I'm only 15 so dont hold this not so great grammer againest me)

Summary: This is the best all around book on the subject
Review: If I could carry only one book with me, knowing that my plane was going to crash in the wilderness, this would be the book. Let me qualify this statement. I am a pilot and have been practicing primitive survival living skills for seventeen years. My library on survival contains at least thirty books. This book is easy to understand and has multiple, detailed photographs. It should be noted that the section which discusses "eating mice for food" should be disregarded because the risk of contracting Hanta Virus is greater than the nutritional value of the mouse.
