How to Fight a Bear . . . and Win

& 72 Other Real Survival Tips We Hope You'll Never Need

About this book

A humorous guide to surviving in the wilderness, that also might make you want to avoid the wilderness forever.

For more than twenty-five years, Uncle John's Bathroom Reader has helped you learn amazing things you didn't know. Now, Uncle John will show you how to do things you didn't know how to do . . . and probably should never, never, never actually do, unless you're in a survival situation and really, really, really need to do. It's How to Fight a Bear . . . and Win. A new approach to survival guides and how-to books, this book provides step-by-step instructions for how to make do in any rugged terrain. But if you're expecting "how to start a fire," think again. This isn't the kind of book that will tell you how to make a fire by rubbing two sticks together—it will tell you how to make a fire using a car battery. It will also tell you:

·       How to swing from a vine like Tarzan

·       How to land an airplane in an emergency

·       How to fight a bear . . . and win

·       How to perform emergency surgery in the woods

·       How to identify what insects you can—and cannot—eat

And lots, lots more
