I just read Last of the Breed by Louis L'Amour. First of all, it was entertaining. Secondly, there was a lot of information on wilderness survival in the story. Just thought I'd pass it along for what it is worth.

I have always enjoyed Louis L'Amour's books. There always seems to be some tidbit in it along with an enteresting story.

Excellent story. A modern book for L'Amour, not a western, but a good survival story in a harsh environment. Sort of forgotten about that book need to read it again sometime.

And at least in this one he didn't have the hero plunging his razor sharp bowie knife into the dirt to remove the blood of the bad guy. I always figured that razor edge would disappear pretty fast going into the dirt...
