Title: Essential Reading for the Traveler
Review: I recently purchased the backpack edition of this book and have really enjoyed it. It's highly informative, easy to understand, and has the potential to save the life of anyone who reads it. There's the odd mistake, such as using barrel cacti as a source of water in the desert, when only some species are safe to drink from (thanks to Ray Mears for that tidbit in his Survival series), but overall you will come away from reading this book with knowledge that will prolong your life in a survival situation. I'd recommend the backpack edition as it fits nicely in the side pocket of a rucksack, but has the full text of the original. Seal this book in a waterproof bag, and take it with you when traveling off the beaten path.
