Outdoor Safety and Survival by Paul H. Risk Pdf

I'm a bit of a prepper. Tracked this down after reading about it on Don Rearic.com and am glad I did. No gimmicks, just straight out practical survival advise from an expert. Some of the info is a bit dated now (e.g.: survival kits) but the basic survival info is still just as sound to day as it was when the book was written near 30 years ago. Highly recommend.--Kimberly Reedy on Amazon.com.
