I can‘t help being fascinated by these kinds of books. I would have liked more survival stories though. The book could easily have been twice as long.

#TBRtemptation post! This is a captivating narrative by an expert in outdoor survival, and this book has become legendary for its usefulness. It's helped saved lives in the deepest wildernesses & improved people's daily lives--it's a mix of adventure narrative & practical advice. It'll help the reader overcome stress, assess risk, & make better decisions under pressure. Fascinating! #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
