I found this a very useful. I already had an extensive set of survival items I had assembled for camping. (There is a lot of overlap between a Bug Out Bag (BOB) and a backpack loaded for multi-day wilderness camping.) However, I identified a number of items that I could add to my kit. Within the various categories, the author compares and describes different items -- types of whistles or compasses for example. If you are not sure what you might need for a BOB or camping trip, this is a good place to start.This book is not about survival skills. This is about the tools and gear you need to survive and how to assemble those items. One nice feature is the different methods you can assemble kits - from pocket size to vehicles.I found a couple of issues with the book, which was published in 2013. In water purification he makes no mention of a popular filter system. However, he does describe the water filter on his website. Also, he has several checklists in the back. The book cites a website for downloading copies of the lists, But that URL, which was for the publisher of the book, is no longer valid. I contacted the author. He told me the URL was added by the publisher. Nevertheless, the lists in the back of the book are very useful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading! *by J***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 27, 2015* I wondered how you could write an entire book about putting a PSK together, but after receiving the book, now I know. John goes into detail on all the most important gear one would put in a kit and also describes several versions of each as well as containers for the kits. He also has several lists of survival kits of different sizes plus a lot of other good info on gear and kits. As an experienced outdoorsman and survivalist, I already have knowledge of kits and gear but I still found the book very interesting and I even go back and re-read certain sections again to refresh my memory. I got the book at a discount and received it promptly. Not a bad idea for anyone interested in making a PSK to buy one of these books. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book on how to build your own survival kit. *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 9, 2014* The best books written about survival kits, from simple to complex from small to large kits. I built my first survival kit when I was in High School, that was around 1969 when 3 of my friends and me decided to climb Bear Mountain in NY State straight up, and we did. I have been building first aid kits ever since for myself and I am 67 years old. John has put a lot of experience and common sense into his book, and written at a level that anyone can understand. With the help of this book you can build a survival kit customized to your own needs, and if you ever have to use it along with some common it may save your life. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/8296985-build-the-perfect-survival-kit](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/8296985-build-the-perfect-survival-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
