Compass & Map Navigator  2008-06-16
This book is full of useful information on how to find direction with and without a compass. Very well written by a professional in easy to understand language with many lifesaving tips on how to find one's way back home.
He knows navigation, and how to teach it  2004-10-20
I know little about navigation, but I can tell when someone is knowledgable or not. And Hodgson is not only adept at navigating, he is equally competent at teaching these skills to others. I found that many of his tricks and tips are easily applied to many circumstances. In fact the only fault that I have with this book is that I was expecting the compass included in the book to be a capable as a backup, which it is not. Other than that, I believe that the book is very helpful and unless you are an expert navigator you should be able to find some usefulness.
reads in one sitting, wanting to go out hiking!! 1999-03-22
I've read the book in one sitting, turning maps and terrain over and over in my head. The author makes the information clear and concise. It is clear that he is an experienced hiker in all kinds of terrains and conditions: desert and winter environments. It (the book) is a no-nonsense what you need to know instruction set. If you need to know how to use, or even what to buy in a compass, then this is the book that puts it down on paper in a way that you remember when you are out on the trail.
Good concise discussion on land navigation 1997-10-09
Well written, well illustrated guide to general land navigation. Also teaches how-to navigate without a compass. Book includes a compass-on-a-card that can be carried in a wallet and used for survival situations. Excellent for beginners and intermmediate navigators. I liked the graphic illustrations and the illustrations of how to use a map with a compass. The only negative I found was the lack of mention that the magnetic declination changes each year. If you have an old map, the declination value can be off significantly.
