My son bought this book (9 yrs old) with his Christmas money and has been glued to it. He and his father will be building a tree house next year. He loves it!

I am a geezer and things like this were taught when I was young and had to run from dinos to avoid becoming supper while going home for supper BUT
The IGGIES put everything right here!!
--------
Get 2 copies of this book, one for the young man who needs to know these things because... a mans gotta know what a man should know.
--------
Get the other copy for yourself because you've forgotten things you should not have.

It is a Dangerous, if you want a helpful book try U.S. Army Survival Manual.
2008-07-22 - Brilliant book for boys or girls
My nine year old twin girls love the book. Sure, they have no interest in hunting rabbits (they're vegetarians) or famous battles in history (at least not yet), but there's a lot in here for any kid who is not on too tight of a parental leash. Get this and the girls' book too. A lot of worthwhile bits in each.
2008-07-15 - Great father/son book
This is a great father/son book. There are things in there that I was never taught to do, so both my son and I are learning. Great stuff to do together!
