Title: A pastepot book, with contempt for the reader
Product review: The subject, through stupidity, incompetence, and arrogance, got himself stuck in the wilderness and had to cut off a good hunk of one of his lower arms. He has cashed in on his stupidity and misfortune by becoming an "inspirational speaker." (Maybe he could also endorse Swiss Army knives, eh?)His book offered a golden opportunity for him to do some good for the world. He had been asked to include a major section of advice for other hikers, on how to prepare, safety, what to take with you, etc. To hell with other people, figured the author; no such useful information was included.The book itself is a pretty good account, though the whole book is pretty skimpy for the price.
