This is the first survival book I bought. My favorite quote is:
"Seagulls can be caught by wrapping food around a stone and throwing it in the air. The gull swallows the bait while still on the wing, gulpind down the stone with it, and the change in weight causes the bird to crash".
Not that I have done this , but if you throw bread into the air, the birds will grab it (once they know food can be had, you will have lots of them flying around you) and eat it, swap it out for Alka-Seltzer. Alka-Seltzer generates gas and birds can’t burp. Given a min and it’s crash time.
One of the prerequisites for judging any written work is the ability to read and understand the instructions. If you don't listen to Lofty Wiseman, Cody Lundgren or Chris Kavanaugh you can get et by a Tiger, die of thirst in the desert , get banned from ETS.
Needless to say, it is one of the two things that I've ever eaten that tasted better going up than down. The other is cattail tuber. I'm not sure if I'd ever be that hungry- my toes might look tasty first.

I also have the Gem version which I bought for about $10.00 a few years ago. It provided decent survival information and I used it in developing some PSK's.
