Pdf would have been nice

There were charts and lists that would have been great in a supplemental pdf. Overall, great general advice on survival, but don’t think you’ll be able use any of it without some hands on training. I about couldn’t stand the narrator. His voice was grating, until the credits at the end, and i really wonder why he didn’t just use his real voice instead of making me want to clear my throat the whole time.

Great content, brutal to get through the narration

Solid content, more detailed than some other books of this kind, particularly in the first aide/medical section. With respect, I personally had a hard time with the narrators voice, it reminds me of Froggy from the Little Rascals, so it was comical at times, almost annoying at others. I did know what I was getting into as I always listen to the sample before buying, but a minute sample vs an entire book taught me a good lesson.

Good, but a bit too anti-theory

While the content is valuable, he does rant against survival "theories" and suggest "his" take on various things. It's fine to question "theories", but then you should have a stronger case than "this is my experience".

loved it

You wanted the Best, Really just a no BS survival book. Didn't try to sell me anything, but really learned a lot.

The Best, Most Complete Survival Manual Available

The narrator is indeed terrible. He sounds like a nerd trying to sound tough. But don’t let that keep you from this no-nonsense tour de force. I have read almost every survival manual out there and there are some other gems, but pound for pound, this one delivers the most applicable, real world punch you need if you truly want to develop the skills needed to survive. The first three chapters alone are worth the money.
If you want the best information out there on surviving almost anything, this is it.
