Rich Johnson's Guide To Wilderness SurvivalJohnson 320pp/photos/illus ISBN 9780071588331 The author, an Army Special Forces veteran and Nantahala Outdoor Center instructor who also writes a survival column for Outdoor Life magazine, avoids both the rigid ideology of the "primitive skills" camp & the macho posturing of the military/survivalist school, taking a pragmatic approach, using short, tightly focused chapters to present a few proven, easily implemented methods to get you by. Situations range from the mundane (cooking, camp sanitation, finding your way with a map and compass) to the rare and hazardous (snake bite, heart attack), in every type of wilderness, whether you're a mile down a wooded trail in a neighborhood park, or weeks from civilization on a subarctic river Item Status: Not in stock today.
