Summary: Terrible book
Comment: This book was a complete waste of my money. Way too much philosophy and theory on why/how the body gets hypothermic and so on with hardly any skills on how to survive. The author's ego was a little too much at times as well. Can't believe he rattled on for hundreds of pages to the point of utter redundancy. Not to mention the sexist drawings of buxom women which were offensive. Ridiculous book!

Summary: 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive
Comment: There are hundreds of survival books out there. HEY - Buy them all but read this one 1st. Its Fun loving , but no nonsense approach to that first 78 hour of a crisis is great. As a outdoor skills trainer and all around outdoor knock about , I'm going to steal a lot of the advice in this book. Well it won't be stealing cuz I know it all anyway. Get this Book!!!!!!!

Summary: 98.6 serves up lukewarm
Comment: I had high hopes for this book but was very dismayed after reading it. Despite the author's attempt at over-the-top humor and cute buzzwords, much of the information seems derivative like it was cut and pasted from other survival books I've read before. Having worked as a lead instructor for many years for NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School), I was rather disappointed to see another book that will fill the reader with bad information. I would recommend Davenport's books on survival or any by Ray Mears- both of whom have real-life experience with the skills they write about.
