"Graphic tales of true-life survival"--Cover.

"For over 50 years, Outdoor Life magazine has asked readers to share their true-life tales of outdoor adventure. Top-notch graphic artists illustrate the best, most thrilling, unusual, or just plain bizarre stories here to create one-of-a-kind storytelling in the tradition of the best pulp comics. Blood-dripping fangs, man-eating sharks, gun-toting bad guys and relentless tornados are just the beginning. This book collects the best of Outdoor Life's reader-submitted death-defying adventures and adds some new illustrations never before published anywhere else. Is every word of this true? How could you possibly doubt the stories of a man who punched a bloodthirsty bear in the face, or a woman who saved her baby from a vicious snake with a lasso and an axe? If you've ever wondered what might happen if you strayed off the trail, dove into shark-infested waters, blew up your campsite, or had to ride out a monsoon in a rowboat, this book shows you in absolutely fantastic detail."--Amazon.com.
