Book Reviews of 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive
Book Review: Sound information
Summary: 5 Stars
This book and its approach to survival is not my bag, however Lundin does what he set out to do in writing it. Some have described this book as chauvinistic, brash and immature. Perhaps the art is offensive to some, but the information, the reason people actually buy the book, is solid. This is not a primitive technology book, nor a wilderness living manual. It is in short, a Survival Manual. If you want to create a survival kit for your car, cabin or whatever, Lundin leads you through it step by step. For the armchair survivalist that has no desire to actually practice tough skills, this book is for you. If you want to be a responsible back country trekker, this book is for you. If you want to be prepared to survive short term (72 hours give or take a few days) disasters like power outages, back country strandings, or just getting lost, then this book is the one to have. The well researched reasoning behind his ideas comes across clearly leaving no doubt as to the action to be taken to correct a given situation.
The best part of this book is by far the comprehensive survival kits and all their contents and the rationale for selecting the items he lists.
Well worth the money!
