The Survival Handbook: Essential Skills for Outdoor Adventure

The Survival Handbook: Essential Skills for Outdoor Adventure Hardcover – March 16, 2009 by DK Publishing (Author), Colin Towell (Contributor).

As we come to rely on technology in almost every aspect of our everyday lives, there is a large and ever-growing interest in how we would survive without the conveniences of the modern age. "The Survival Book" shows you not only how to adapt in such circumstances, but also how to thrive in the wilderness environment.
Packed with specially commissioned, crystal-clear, step-by-step illustrations for every survival technique, from what to do if you meet a bear in the woods to how to navigate by the stars, this book also includes exciting stories of real-life survival-what happened, who survived, and how they did it.
