Title: A great beginners guide, I liked it.
Product review: This book is meant for beginners. Lets face it, everybody has to start somewhere. As a novice I didn't want a book that was 400 pages breaking down every last detail about using maps and compasses. This book is actually quite good. It's well written and easy to understand. For 10 dollars you're not going to get extremely high resolution maps and perfect quality pictures, otherwise it's no longer 10 dollars. You have to remember that this book was derived from a single chapter of a bigger book. It's designed to throw in your pack and be easily stowed. It's easy to pick this book up and find useful information quickly. The authors time and again preach about common sense and draw upon their own personal experience in the wilderness. I will read this book again.
