A Guy's How-To Guide To Life

Posted: 6/21/2010

The latest volume in a popular book series offers the lowdown on how to master what it considers to be the essential skills needed by guys to get by in both the modern world and the wilderness.

(NAPSI)-If you have ever wanted to know how to put out a grill fire, avoid shooting a champagne cork, remove a fishhook from your finger, build a shelter in the snow or rid a room of monsters, there's good news for you.

The latest volume in a popular book series offers the lowdown on how to master what it considers to be the essential skills needed by guys to get by in both the modern world and the wilderness.

Author David Borgenicht, the creator of The Worst-Case Scenario series of books, has researched hundreds of tactics for dealing with the most dangerous and challenging of situations.

The most recent title, "The Complete Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Man Skills," details how to deal with the perils previously mentioned and others, such as surviving a stadium riot, treating a shaving wound, flipping an overturned kayak and bonding with a teenager; all skills that any dad would be wise to know.

The 500+ page book covers what it describes as the essential aspects of a modern man's life with chapters on Great Escapes, Sports and Hobbies, Domestic Disasters, Work, and Out and About excursions.

According to Borgenicht, the book not only details adventurous feats but also more domestic challenges as well. Said Borgenicht, "As president of my company, I may negotiate contracts and convince partners to do business with me, but trying to apologize when you don't know what you've done wrong? Now that's something that men need help figuring out."

Published by Chronicle Books, "The Complete Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Man Skills" (Piven, Borgenicht and Winters) is available where books are sold and is said to make a timely gift for both dads and grads. To learn more, visit www.ChronicleBooks.com.
