A very thorough instruction manual. Explains how to build a shelter out of grass, and start a fire with sticks. Has instructions on how to capture and eat wild mice (there is warning about the Hanta Virus on the inside cover).

If you want to know how to survive in the wilderness with nothing but a knife this is the book for you. ( )
