 Not going to teach you much Oct 20, 2009
I recently read The Ultimate Man's Survival Guide, and while it does contain some useful information if you bought this book thinking that it would teach you how to survive in the wilderness then I fear you have wasted your money. The parts of the book relating to wilderness survival are so miniscule that you only get a tiny fraction of information that might help you survive.
I think the title of the book is misleading. I think a better title might be; Things Every Man Should Know but Most Have Forgotten.
The book talks about a lot of different subjects in limited detail and survival is just one topic discussed and as I mentioned it is not covered in any great detail in this book.

 a great read for a young man Sep 19, 2009
growing up as an outdoorsman and someone whom has travel to many places overseas I would have loved to read this book when I was a young man dreaming up the things I have done and will keep on doing. Do not get me wrong this book was a great read to see someone else's take on many things and how they learned their skills. I would give this book an 5 star for 14 - 20 year old readers and an 4 star for 21 years and older readers.

Exactly what I was looking for. Sep 14, 2009
This book jumped off the shelf as I was walking by. Now I find myself eating lots of bran so I can have more bathroom time with it.
Having said that, I have one MAJOR issue with it. In the section which details how to perform CPR, the sole focus is on airway management, with no mention of chest compressions. The American heart Association does not emphasize mouth to mouth resuscitation by bystanders any more, rather they emphasize continuous chest compressions without interruption for rescue breathing until the arrival of Advanced Life Support. If one were to include a pocket rescue breathing mask in a survival kit, then rescue breathing could be provided in the form of two rescue breaths after every two minutes of chest compressions. But today it is all about compressions.

 For those that have move beyond The Dangerous Book for Boys Sep 11, 2009
I bought my son "The Dangerous Book for Boys" and enjoyed it myself. I found this book to be the next step, how to be a man. Some great advice, tips, and stories in the book. Well worth reading.

Great book! Sep 04, 2009
Overall I love this book. I saw a review for it in a NRA mag that I receive and it both hit the nail on the head. Sure there are several topics that I think are common sense...or perhaps I just picked them up along the way. But this really is a great book. Well worth both the money and the time. I will be picking up a few of these for Christmas.
