How to Stay Alive in the Woods by Bradford Angier is currently in Print. I
picked up a copy last night at my local Books A Million and they also had
it at Barnes and Noble. Cost: 8.00

I have been reading it and it is both informative and a delightful read!
Did you know that you can start a fire with a piece of ice? Boy, is THAT
cold!
Cheers
