A hyper complete practical guide for fans of survival and adventure and nature enthusiasts. All areas of survival are discussed: how food, heat, shelter, etc. There are many illustrations. Plants and fungi are in color. The paper is of high quality (glossy). The coverage is superb. For the manufacture of traps or shelter constructions, I still think it lacks some explanations to really go through. If you are beginner, I doubt that we can only get there with these explanations. But it's still the most complete survival book I've read. To heal by powerful natural remedies recommended by doctors, I recommend supplementing with this book: The Bible pocket 501 Most Powerful Natural Remedies Doctors
