"To judge the book purely on its own goals (Summers states early on that he just wanted to issue a worthwhile guide that would allow people to gain and retain some knowledge about fire), it's a success. it knows what it is, and gives you more resources should you be further interested. In this day and age where obtaining a free instructional video is only a few clicks away, Summers intelligently makes a good case for his book being equally valuable to have on-hand. "It's established early on that to author a book about building fires out and about is practically impossible due to regional variances, and in that might lie a shortcoming of this work for some as it might make this feel incomplete, but, truthfully, there's only so much that Summers can do to help a reader ready to light a fire. You gotta get out there, link up with someone familiar with your local area, etc. in order to get that experience. "It's a good introduction, and especially so if you're rolling on through to any of the listed resources (i.e. the "further reading"). "Many thanks to NetGalley, Rowman & Littlefield, and Falcon Guides for the advance read." -- Nathan Helton, Consumer Reviewer<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Nate Summers, author of Primal: Why We Long to be Wild and Free, has been a survival skills instructor for over 20 years with a background in anthropology, Asian studies, and natural medicine.
