"If you breathe and have a pulse, you NEED this book."

-Cody Lundin

Cody Lundin, director of the Aboriginal Living Skills School in Prescott, Arizona, shares his own brand of wilderness wisdom in this highly anticipated new book on commonsense, modern survival skills for the backcountry, the backyard, or the highway. It is the ultimate book on how to stay alive-based on the principal of keeping the body's core temperature at a lively 98.6 degrees. In his entertaining and informative style, Cody stresses that a human can live without food for weeks, and without water for about three days or so. But if the body's core temperature dips much below or above the 98.6 degree mark, a person can literally die within hours. It is a concept that many don't take seriously or even consider, but knowing what to do to maintain a safe core temperature when lost in a blizzard or in the desert could save your life. Lundin delivers the message with wit, rebellious humor, and plenty of backcountry expertise.

Cody Lundin and his Aboriginal Living Skills School have been featured in dozens of national and international media sources, including Dateline NBC, CBS News, USA Today, The Donny and Marie Show, and CBC Radio One in Canada, as well as on the cover of Backpacker magazine. When not teaching for his own school, he is an adjunct faculty member at Yavapai College and a faculty member at the Ecosa Institute. Cody is the only person in Arizona licensed to catch fish with his hands, and lives in a passive solar earth home sixty miles from Prescott, Arizona.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - But
This is a great book but had a horrible sample. The sample only had quotes and the context of the book. Although it is a great book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The definitive book on survival
Having been a survival instructor in the SEAL Teams and for the FBI and some other gov entities, this is the definitive book. He explodes many myths on survival as he actually lived in the bush and ate those things "which would make a billy-goat puke". Such things as why chlorine won't work in turbid water to how to store food and what can/cannot be eaten - he has walked the walk. We recommend this book to all FBI LEGAL Attaches and their dependents who are going overseas to less than hospitable ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you travel to see nature, READ THIS BOOK.
This book is boring at times, silly at times, but it could save your life if you are stranded or lost. This book is cheap insurance and all nature lovers should read this book.---------I have hunted and hiked for many years and never thought of carrying some of the items listed or the importance of leaving contact information.-------Build a small kit for under $50 and be prepared!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A no BS book
Great survival book! Read Lundin's other book as well. 98.6 gets to the point of really surviving a real survival mess. No catching mice with bailing wire here, just sound survival advice. Everyone who goes outdoors should read this book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of a kind
Truly unique take on survival as far as the teaching style, with all of the meat of tried and true hands on experience, priceless...good stuff here.
