 Review of Making Native American Survival Tools October 11, 2008

This book was purchased by and for my 11-year old son. He is fascinated with Indians in general, as well as arrowheads, bow and arrows, machetes, etc. that Indians used. He has really enjoyed this book, using it as a guide to make his own "tools". I have found interesting and crafty stuff all over the house!

I like the book very much. I've been wanting to learn to knapp fpr some time and have looked at many books and this one is the best I've found. The illustrations are good and the intructions are easy to understand and Mr. Burch guides with a love for the skills he teaches.

Vague rehash of better books November 20, 2007

"A Guide to Manufacturing Native Replicas with Modern Tools" might be a more accurate title. Nothing new offered here, just skimpy information that lacks many details and has the feel of material skimmed from other, more informative books. Birch clearly has experience with some of the skills yet his ability to translate knowledge to paper is lacking. Someone who knows what they are doing can fill in the often large gaps in the information, but then they don't need the book, do they? I always look for the one piece of new information that merits the purchase of a book and was hard pressed to find one here. I should add that Burch is a "professional" author and writes from that vantage point rather than from that of a practitioner of the skills he covers.
