"From the task of being prepared before stepping into the great outdoors, to dealing with the possibility of life-threatening instances while in the field. I can firmly resolve that this book (Simple Survival) is definitely worth adding to your arsenal of knowledge as it could very well mean the difference between life and death.

Gary L. Benton has drawn on his own experience in the writing of this book and his years of training are reflected in the pages of Simple Survival. Gary has written one of the must-have books for anyone interested in the outdoors and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

“Simple Survival is straightforward, delightfully humourous, factual, trustworthy and most importantly, understandable - something that many survival guides available today fail to be. It is a pleasure to read a book with a serious subject and learn so much in a user-friendly way.”

“I consider myself very lucky to have had Gary Benton as my egress/ejection and survival instructor when I was in the United States Air Force in the mid 1970’s. I personally know of at least four people who survived to fly another day due to his training. The sign of a true survival professional is one who keeps you alive and this man does it! Gary is no armchair survival expert, but a real hands-on individual and this guide can make a serious difference in a life and death situation.”
