I was excited to receive this book as it purportedly was going to describe the strategies and techniques of the one of the world's most elite fighting forces. The book however is a great disappointment as there are few strategies and next to no techniques that are mentioned, let alone described or explained. The book is a series of lists of hazards (i.e. - frostbite, sun stroke, dehydration, scorpions, etc) that are more completely described in other survival books. Almost no techniques are given throughout the book, and the reader is expected to feel satisfied with the most vague descriptions and glossed-over strategies that even the arm-chair adventurer will feel lost and wanting. The book was also hastily edited with lots of repetitive information, especially in the captions of the laughingly general photos that seem as though the authors spent 5 minutes on Google finding the images.
I have the greatest respect for the US Navy Seals and am proud to be in a country where such elite individuals risk their lives for the greater good of our country, but this book falls short of what its title portrays is inside.

I have taught SERE for the past 13 years to all four branches of the military, as well as going to survival courses all over the world, and practicing these skills. I have worked with many SEALs and SF guys over the years and have the utmost respect for them, what they do for our country, and how professional they are. I first heard about this book about 6 months before it came out and was excited to finally read it. I was disappointed to find it full of misspellings, information that is not current, and other errors. Just one example: List of the world's 10 largest deserts by size (only 9 are listed). The one thing that I do like about this book is that every chapter contains stories that are real world survival examples. Still, it appears Don Mann wants to sell his book solely on his reputation as a SEAL and not the comprehensiveness and quality of the information in it. The people associated with this book (Don Mann, Tony Nester, and others) have tons of outdoor experience in virtually every environment on earth, it is too bad they did not share more of it with us. I am just very disappointed in a book that had the potential to be one of the best survival books written.
