I have the over-sized version. It was one of my first survival books and really got me thinking about survival and kits. It is one of my favorites. It is kind of a classic. I also have the flick book, which I picked up on ebay in the book section. There is a lot of stuff you won't use, but it definitely gets you thinking about different ways to do things.

If I had to pick another it would be Cody Lundins book (The Art of Keeping Your A** Alive).

My latest manual I obtained is kind of a home-made job. It has some good info but generally made for SERE guys.
