Mykel Hawke's Green Beret Survival Manual: Essential Strategies For: Shelter and Water, Food and Fire, Tools and Medicine, Navigation and Signaling, Survival Psychology and Getting Out Alive! Review

NEVER QUIT!! You will see these words throughout this book and they are words to live by. Myke Hawke is Special Forces-trained and approaches survival like a tactician. He basically leaves nothing to chance and advises that you do the same, since assuming ANYTHING in a survival situation will most likely make you dead. It is chock full of information that is easy to remember, since he uses many acronyms as mnemonic devices. For example, he subscribes to the "KISS" theory of survival, with "KISS" standing for "Keep It Simple, Stupid!" In other words, keeping it simple will conserve your energy, keep you alive longer and increase your chances of being rescued.

I reviewed his website and apparently, there is a "Field Version" of this book in development. That would be awesome, since a Field Version would be a better fit in one's survival pack. All in all, it is a very thorough and informative read and you will learn a great deal. NEVER QUIT!!

Good basic info + 1 myth - Michael S. Pollock - Campbell, CA United States
The book covers the basics with more depth on the medical issues. Although the title implies a military approach the book is really written in a "a skilled and experienced next door neighbor giving advice" style. Does repeat the myth, based on an error in an army manual, that rubbing an needle with silk will make the needle act like a compass. Other than that the book is full of sound advice for a survival situations.

Survival manual - librarylinda -
I was pleasantly surprised that the book was a hardback. The information was divided well and the topics began with a red title making the information easier to find. The illustrations were drawn rather than photographs but were easy to follow. The author writes in a way that the information is easy to understand. Lots of good information and a book worth having in your collection if you are interested in knowing how to survive in the wilderness. The author teaches you all the things you need to know and have to survive.
