Summary: You Need this book!
Review: When Joe (AKA ABOMAN) picked up his chisel to write this book it was after many years of experience as a teacher and practitioner of the survival arts. I call survival skills "arts" as survival is an art that requires finesse and practice and imagination and innovation. Joe shows his art in every page of this book.I have a lot of "Survival books". Some are just tired rewrites of military survival skills books but others, like this one, are real discourses on the topic of survival. In this book Joe covers everything from escaping a burning building to surviving natural disasters to trouble-shooting problems with your home and vehicle. He even covers some of the alternative and herbal remedies that are giving "modern" medicine heartburn... because it works. One essential part of any book is readability. I keep a few survival books near my bed just in case I have a problem falling asleep. Joe's book on the other hand is like a cup of really good, rich coffee. It wakes you up and sets you to thinking.... and gives the answers. Do I recommend this book? YOU BET! Ron Hood
