    The creator of Survivorman recounts a wide range of wilderness survival stories and shares lessons from them that could save your life. 
     
    In a survival situation, a wrong decision could spell the difference between life and death. 
     
    No one knows this better than Les Stroud, who has survived everywhere from the sun-scorched sands of the Kalahari to the snake-infested jungles of the Amazon. In Will to Live, Les examines many incredible true-life survival stories—explaining what happened and why, and offering valuable perspectives on what went right, what went wrong, and what could have been done differently. The tales in Will to Live include: 
     
    Chris McCandless—the subject of the book and movie Into the Wild. 
     
    Yossi Ghinsberg—who survived alone in the Amazon for twenty-one days. 
     
    Douglas Mawson—the Antarctic “superman” who survived three hellish months at the bottom of the planet. 
     
    Nando Parrado—who was trapped for two months high in the Andes after a plane crash killed his friends and family. 
     
    Plus . . . stories from Les’s own experiences, along with practical sidebars with tips on how to escape quicksand, butcher a moose, cross a snow-covered crevasse, and more. 
     
    Provocative and entertaining, Will to Live is a compilation of history’s most intriguing survival stories from one of the world’s foremost experts. 
     
    “He offers intelligent tips—if you’re traveling somewhere remote, tell people where you’re going, take a well-stocked survival kit, and keep a cool head if you get lost—and he does an excellent job of putting readers into the situations he’s discussing, making us feel the cold or the panic or the sheer desperation.” —Booklist

    In 50 Shades of Hillwalking
    , Ralph Storer takes a quirky look at the peculiar pursuit of messing about on mountains and presents us with 50 personal hillwalking experiences. Walking, climbing, mountain biking, caving - Ralph has tried it all, but admits to expertise only in the lost art of 'festering'. With room also for contemplation and argument, his inimitable 50 Shades
    will amuse, inspire and inform.
    Follow in his footsteps as he roves from the Lake District to the Alps, from Snowdonia to Scandinavia, and from the Scottish Highlands to the deserts and canyons of America. Warm to his intrepid exploits of derring-do as he gets snowbound in a tent, gets stuck on ice falls and in caves, and falls off mountain bikes and down sand dunes.
    Culled from not-yet-a-lifetime of eclectic escapades both at home and abroad, brought to life by carefully selected images, this highly entertaining collection of stories will resonate with anyone whose aspirations outstrip their ability.
    PRAISE FOR RALPH STORER:
    His books are exceptional' he subverts the guidebook completely.
    THE ANGRY CORRIE
    Storer is happy to share numerous irreverent insights into the hills, and this acts as a timely reminder that walking should be primarily about enjoyment of the great outdoors.
    ABERDEEN PRESS AND JOURNAL
