This book assumes that you will be 'surviving' in North America, probably in the Northern woods. While it has aged better than many other books, it does not take the vulnerabilities of the environment into account the way we would today. (Survival of one/a few human(s) is more important than protection of animals, ecosystems?)

The kit he recommends is much heavier than most people can carry (or his own guidelines). Much of it is also of more use to those with the sort of experience that would make the book superfluous. ( )

Epigraph
Dedication
For Claire and Joe Barkley and the other sourdough neighbors who live near our log cabin in Hudson Hope, British Columbia, Canada, where this book was written.
First words
Anybody at any moment can find himself thrown upon his own resources for survival. It takes very little time, effort, and even less money to be ready for an emergency. But if you are not prepared, one may take your life.
