5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Field and Stream Manual
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2022

We own all of the field and stream manuals. This does not have repetitive material from the others. This one is exactly what it says, an outdoorsman manual. Has tips for boating, camping, fishing, and hunting. I was in the USMC for 2 decades and spent my life on the water and in the woods. Half of this material was new to me. Great book for the coffee table or deer camp!

These Field and stream books are loaded with many years of helpful hints from their great writers, great photos and illustrations, and unforgettable stories. Early in the morning when everyone is asleep, I grab a cup of coffee and get lost in the great outdoors. What do love is the advice on what you do need and don't need.

This thing is pretty cool! Ive learned a lot just from briefly flipping through the pages. It seems maybe a bit geared toward the slightly more country person but i still love it. they probably could have split up the "survive" section i also thought this would be the biggest section but it wasn't as extensive as i had hoped it would be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super book for anyone interested in the outdoors
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2014
Verified Purchase
My husband and I originally received this book for Christmas a year ago (2012). We liked it so much that we purchased it again for a gift exchange with my family this past Christmas (2013). My brother-in-law ended up receiving this gift and loves it. It in perfect for him. He is a big fisherman. My husband hunts, enjoys camping and generally being outdoors. This is a great guide for general survival skills, hunting tips, boy scout like advice and fishing techniques. My husband's favorite thing about this outdoorsman book is detailed survival skills. Any man feels manly learning about those! Great value with lots of content.

I first checked this book out from the library and I had to read everything. It catches your eye with many well depicted illustrations and easy to follow instructions. For camping, hunting, fishing, and surviving, this book is an excellent read and worth every dollar. Did you know you could make a mug out of your coffee can? Or make a heated bed in the woods? Or save yourself from drowning in icy water? All this and much more to make you the best outdoorsman or outdoorswoman yet!

Bought this for my 12 yr old nephew who loves anything envolving the outdoors, fishing, hunting, etc. He loves it and according to his mother it's the only book he'll read for more than fifteen minutes. Although it's a grown up book, it has loads of interesting and useful information for anyone whether they spend a lot of time in the wilderness or just in their own backyard.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cool reading, not a teaching tool.
Reviewed in Canada on February 18, 2014

Ok this is a good, fun read. The kind of book you leave in the bathroom or in the car to kill time. There's a lot of tips covering four general topics (Shelter, Fishing, Hunting, Survival) but that's pretty much it, tips. Don't take this book too seriously. Actually there's a good deal of humor in it. You won't really learn much with this book because the content is kind of shallow at times. Now don't get me wrong, it is still a good book. It offers a good variety of good & handy tips and advices but it is not really a teaching tool. It doesn't go into deep, detailed explanation. The authors kept it short & sweet, which is not a bad thing, but don't expect this to be the ''ultimate outdoorsman skills'' bible or something like that. Take it for what it is, a fun read with great tips.
