 Written on June 2, 2008 Summary: fantastic book I couldn't believe that I couldn't put this book down. Full disclosure -I also read it at a time when I was totally obsessed with the great depression and WWII, after having watched all of Ken Burns' piece... Yes, it is full of technical mountaineering type terms, half of which I didn't know and don't care to learn further about, but it was still fascinating to me. It gives a little more meat the the 'right stuff' factor of a survive and thrive mindset at large. If you're a life lesson concepts / big picture kinda sort, it's a really good read. And if you always have a swiss army knife on your key chain, bandaids in your purse and a mylar blanket packed along with trailmix and water in the trunk of your car, you also might like it. But there also are crazy stories to follow where you can't imagine how someone ended up alive that make it interesting, too, if you are only in it for the donner-party-type plot... Written on May 24, 2008 Summary: Excellent This book is outstanding and very informative for those who like to do outdoor things in the few wild places that still exist. It applies to all manner of activities and is thought provoking about life and the thinking processes of people under stress. I would recommend this book to anybody and everybody under the age of 70. Written on May 15, 2008 Summary: Not What Was Expected but... I purchased this book for my husband after hearing about it from a instructor in a CPR class I took...I told my husband about it and he wanted to order the book...it wasn't exactly what he expected it to be and after he thumbed thru it, he laid it down for servral days...well when he picked it up again, he said he couldn't put it down as the stories we very inspiring...we will be ordering it for our grandkids in the future and based on what my husband said about the book I will also be reading it... Written on May 2, 2008 Summary: I loved this book This was an inspiring, interesting, and practical book. It's a quick read and the fundemental rules of survival are the same rules for success in business, life, relationships...staying aware, being resourceful, keep moving, dealing with reality/not pereception of how it should be or how you'd like it to be, and most importantly having faith in yourself and others. Great book for anyone. Written on April 15, 2008 Summary: Enjoyed enough to buy it I can't say much more about it than other posters but my final judgment on the book was that I originally checked it out at the library and liked it so much that I bought a copy for home. |
