I've enjoyed all of Abbey's writing. The first part of Lonesome Are the Brave (Burn's morning breakfast routine) always makes me want to head for the mountains.<br><br>I'm currently reading Castaway in Paradise by James C. Simmons. It's subtitled "The Incredible Adventures of True-Life Robinson Crusoes" and includes accounts of many people through history who have been forced into survival situations.<br><br>Being somewhat of a bookworm I checked out the number of "Survival" titles at a nearby bookstore. I found over a dozen separate authors! I'll stick to The Survival Forum for now. Any suggestions on what titles would make your short list?
