Expected much more,
I expected much more from Backpacker. How not to get lost? Stay alert! Avoid hypothermia? Get out of wet clothes. Start a fire? Carry a lighter. A few good tips, but very few. In my opinion, there are many better wilderness survival books in this price range.

A must read. This is not the largest or most extensive book on the subject of survival, but it is very informative.
