Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. I found this book entertaining enough to finish, but very light on information. It felt like Les Stroud was repeating himself time and time again but not really reiterating key points but rather trying to fill space. I enjoy the Survivorman show, I've watched several other things with Les Stroud in it and feel that he knows quite a lot about survival but at the same time this book doesn't seem very useful. I feel that the useful information could have easily been squeezed into 15 pages or so. If survival interests you and you like Les Stroud I'd probably recommend checking it out at the library as it's entertaining enough to read, but otherwise you're better off finding another book (FM 21-76). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
An up-to-the-minute survival guide from the creator of Survivorman explores how to stay alive in the wild, in the jungle, in the desert, and in urban disasters. From the sun-scorched sands of the Kalahari to the snake-infested jungles of the Amazon, Les Stroud has made a life of surviving in the harshest--and most remote--regions on Earth. Now, the creator, producer, and host of the hit television program Survivorman transfers his decades of knowledge and experience to the pages of Survive!, a practical guide that gives everyday readers a no-nonsense look at the real world of survival. Stroud offers readers the essential skills and tactics necessary to endure in any corner of the globe, along with a wealth of insider information born of his own experiences in the outdoors and unavailable in any other book. Readers will learn: How to make a survival shelter and why a lean-to is largely a waste of time.Why survival kits are important, and why you should make your own.Where to find water and why drinking contaminated water is sometimes warranted.How to locate and trap small animals and why the notion of tracking and hunting large game is largely a pipe dream. Whether seasoned in the outdoor arts or new to adventuring, all readers will learn something from Survive!. Stroud's many colorful anecdotes and cut-to-the-chase philosophy not only make for an entertaining read, but also enhance anyone's ability to focus on the main goal when everything else has gone wrong--survival. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

If you want to learn how to survive, or are taking a trip where survival might become a necessity, this is, hands down, the right book to read. Even if you are interested in the outdoors, or like camping, I would recommend this book. Les Stroud knows what he is doing, and explains it well. I mean, you don't get a T.V. show called Survivorman without knowing what you are talking about.
Anyway, I felt at times the book got repetitive, but I guess that can help you learn the information and recall it if you do ever find yourself in a survival situation.
Basically what this boils down to is: If you are outdoorsy and/or interested in survival, read this book. If you could care less about the stuff, skip it. (Although survival skills are not without their merit.) ( )
